302.    $50

Ingraham shelf clock, ca. 1900.  A 20.5-inch walnut case missing the top finial and with a dull finish in need of rejuvenation.  This model is not in Ly’s book on Ingraham clocks and there is no label, so the only indications I have that it is Ingraham issue is the signed movement and the old door glass with a typical Ingraham stencil.  The paper dial is an old replacement, the pendulum very worn.  The 8-day time-and-strike signed movement is running and striking a cathedral gong on the hours and half-hours as required.  An alarm is hooked up but was not tested.  $50-$100.
