Mantel clock on Billy Sunday’s fireplace

Billy and Ma Sunday displayed a beautiful Victorian clock on their mantel in their home in Winona Lake. The characters are Pizarro & Cortez. The clock was made by the Ansonia Clock Company and this model was patented in 1891. One could only conjecture why this piece inspired Billy or Ma Sunday.
