E Ingraham Co. ball-top shelf clock, ca. 1890. This clock is not shown in Ly’s book on Ingraham clocks, but the movement is Ingraham and there is a shred of a label on the back that is an Ingraham label.  Unfortunately, the model name does not remain.  The 24.5-inch walnut case has a dark finish and plenty of patina.  The door glass is period but probably a replacement.  The paper dial is unsigned, darkened, and with some losses.  The hands are appropriate.  The 8-day time-and-strike movement is signed and running and would strike if there was a gong or bell available; it appears the gong has been removed.  There is a cast metal Ingraham pendulum.  Note the metal ornamentation on the crest of the clock; this would have been a better-quality model from Ingraham.  Ingraham key included. $75–$150.
