174.           $200

E. Ingraham & Co. “Ionic”, ca. 1886.  A second example of this model.  The rosewood veneer is all good and the grain painting on the bezels is outstanding.  Both glasses are old/original, the yellowed paper dial on top may be an old replacement and is signed; the calendar paper dial is clean and slightly faded and bears the Ingraham logo.  The hands are correct all around.  The small 8-day, time-only movement is signed and running, and the calendar hands are advancing.  There is a label inside that calls this the ‘Mosaic’, but I don’t think that is the correct label for this clock (note, however, that it is also found on the previous example, #173).  It also notes that you can move the hands forward or backward without harm.  There is a label on the back of the calendar door for the B.B. Lewis calendar.  A nice example.  $200–$400.
