E. Ingraham Co. “Crown Drop”, ca. 1890. The
partial label on the back indicates that this clock was made by the E. Ingraham Co. for W.P. Edwards, possibly a jeweler/retailer
or a company that distributed the clocks to customers or salesmen. The 28-inch refinished black walnut case resembles
other Ingraham cases and the movement is stamped E Ingraham Co. The stenciled glass is modern and the paper dial an older replacement;
the hands are period/correct. The 8-day, time-and-strike movement is running and striking on a cathedral gong. There is
an alarm hooked up that winds separately and was not tested. The pendulum is Ingraham issue. A pretty example of this
style of kitchen wall clocks; note the level tube at the bottom and thermometer at the top, both working. $100–$200.

Can I return my clock if I don’t like it?
Absolutely! Save your packing and box, you have 30 days from receipt to return
it for a full refund if you are unhappy. If the clock is not as described, or I missed something important and that is not evident
from the pictures, I will refund your shipping costs (both ways) as well. Find another auction company that does that!
