230.    $75

E. Ingraham & Co. “Mosaic Front Doric”, ca. 1880.  A 16-inch walnut case with alternating dark and light bands (“candy striping”) on the rounded front trim.  The two door glasses are original, still held in with the original putty; the gilt image of a mounted horseman is intact and the black background in place.  The dial is paper, unsigned, and very old; the hands newer and they should probably be open spade hands.   The 30-hour movement is very dirty but it is running and striking, stamped “E. Ingraham & Co. | Bristol Conn”.  A good label on the backwall.  $100-$200.
