Ansonia Clocks & Watches – Tran Duy Ly w Price Booklet, Unopened, $0 Ship! Review by EILEEN DOUDNA (Eileen Doudna was NAWCC Librarian from 1989 to 1998) From the cover depicting the crystal regulator “Regal” against a background photograph of the Ansonia Clock Company factory, this new edition of ANSONIA CLOCKS AND WATCHES (1998) is a spectacular book. Its 752 pages are crammed with 3061 illustrations depicting every single type of clock made by Ansonia as well as many of their additional products – side pieces, top ornaments, candlesticks, watches and more. The size and weight alone of this new edition indicates the great wealth of additional material that has been added to the 1989 edition. It is these additions that reflect Mr. Ly’s attention to the types of information sought by the clock and watch collector. This book does not simply reproduce Ansonia catalogs. If it had done only that it would provide a valuable reference for the collector. But it is the extras, seen in few if any other collector guides, that make this a “must have” reference for collectors and libraries. What are these “extras?” First, a complete, detailed history of the Ansonia Clock Company by noted horological expert Chris Bailey. This concise history is beautifully illustrated and heavily referenced. Photographs, many never before seen by this reviewer, show the men who dominated Ansonia’s early history as well as the offices, sales rooms, and factory. Page 37 includes a table that will serve as a quick reference for dating Ansonia clocks and neatly unravels for the collector the names used by the company at various times in its history. Ly’s nineteen-page introduction is the result of years spent discussing and collecting clocks. The beginning and seasoned collector both will benefit greatly from reading these important tips on buying and collecting clocks. A careful study of these pages, the cumulative knowledge of many noted collectors, will greatly enhance one’s collecting experiences. The bulk of the text is divided into 48 sections that include all the types of clocks made by Ansonia, as well as brief sections on movements, movement parts, and electroliers. An extensive 49-page section is included on sidepieces, top ornaments and candlesticks. The final section illustrates watches made by Ansonia from 1894-1920. This section includes not only catalog illustrations but also photographs of actual watches owned by private collectors including, in many instances, the original shipping boxes and their labels! This attention to detail is repeated throughout the book. Many author/publishers would have been satisfied to reproduce catalog pages, but Mr. Ly goes beyond that. In many instances photographs of actual clocks are given next to their catalog illustrations. If variations appeared in a clock throughout its production history these are shown side-by-side, again with photographs of actual clocks. Close-ups of dials, movements, parts of movements, cases, case backs and marks on porcelain clocks are all shown. Details to consider when attempting to determine if a clock figure and base are a marriage are concisely presented. A wonderful section on crystal palace clocks begins with a history of these clocks by Chris Bailey including information on the Waterbury crystal palace clocks that will lay to rest much of the confusion about these clocks. Each page depicts Ly’s wealth of knowledge about clock collecting and the things important to the collector. An extensive index by clock type and model name concludes the book. This index greatly aids the quick location of a specific model if a name is known. If the model name is not known the organization of the book by clock type, with an excellent table of contents, greatly facilitates the use of the book. This new edition is destined to become the classic reference on the Ansonia Clock Company and its products. The beginning collector may wonder if it is a worthwhile investment to purchase what to many will appear to be a very expensive book. I can honestly say yes and enthusiastically encourage the purchase. From my years spent researching information about Ansonia clocks I know that much information not previously published or scattered in many sources is cumulated in this one volume. This is one book I would encourage people to purchase for their own libraries. It will be money repaid many times over in coming years. Accompanying the book is a separate pamphlet listing the values of each item in the book. These values have been carefully determined from the input of many well-known collectors from various parts of the country. By using the format of a separate price guide Mr. Ly enables collector’s to inexpensively update the value guide section without purchasing an entire new volume. The main text will serve as a reference for years to come. Those interested in values will be able to inexpensively purchase supplemental price information as it is updated.
