Ithaca Calendar Clock Co. “No. 3 ˝ Parlor”, 1896.  This is the later version of this model with an 8-day, time-and-strike Welch movement.  Note that the pendulum is the early form, with a two-sided beveled glass and the “dog bone” ICCC logo.  The backboard is a single piece.  Consistent with this later edition, the side decorations have a silver border and the carvings are the later edition style.  Note that the carving on the lower left side is missing part of the top and bottom, and several tips are missing off the crest.  The glasses are old, the dial black paper with age. The hands are nickel.  The clock is 20.75 inches tall.  The instruction label on the back is dated 1896.  It is running, striking, and the calendar is advancing.  Horton’s sold one in July 2018 for $2190 and one in January 2018 for $2725.  $2000-$2500.
