211.      $100

Ingraham “Mascot”, ca. 1890.  This model is not shown in Ly’s book on Ingraham clocks but other examples have been found with a label; it matches the King model by Ansonia and others.  This clock does not have a label but the 8-day time and half-hour strike movement is signed Ingraham.  The 24-inch walnut case is clean and refinished in a light walnut color, with gold lion heads on the side mounts and a figurehead at the top.  The gold-stenciled door glass is a replacement, as is the paper dial.  There is an alarm, untested; the clock strikes on a cathedral gong.  It is running without problem.  A nice example.  $100-$200.
