E. Ingraham & Co. “Ionic”, ca. 1886.  This is the later model with the large calendar dial (10-inch diameter), as compared to a later version with a 5.5-inch calendar dial.   The walnut case is 29 inches long with painted bezels to resemble rosewood; the grain-painting is retained but this clock has a thick patina.  The upper glass is original, the lower glass also likely so.  The paper time dial has yellowed and bears the Ingraham name; the paper calendar dial bears the Ingraham logo but appears to have been replaced.  All hands are correct.  The 8-day, time-and-strike movement is signed, running and striking on a wire gong, and the calendar is advancing.  There is a good label inside and a good label on the back of the calendar mechanism.  Schmitt Horan sold a very similar example last fall for $250. $200–$400.
