The Ansonia Clock Company, formed in 1851 and operated as a high-quality company until the 1920s. A series of bad decisions and the Depression forced the sale of the company to Soviet Russia in 1928. The company was originally housed in Darby, Connecticut until 1854 when the factory burned. The company moved production to Ansonia.
