“Seth Thomas Clock Co., Thomaston, Conn.”, hanging clock, “Drop Octagon 12 Inch”, ca 1880. These short drop clocks were very popular in the late 1800’s and up to the 2^nd World War. They were well made of various woods, this one is walnut and it stands about 24 inches high. It was my first clock and will be my last. They are very dependable, almost never need service, I have not oiled mine in the 45 years I have owned it. The 8 day time only movements just keep on running, keeping excellent time, no chimes to wake everyone up at night, and have a quite tick. There is a complete label inside, original pendulum, painted dial, correct hands and glasses. They just don’t get any better than a ST short drop. Ly-Seth Thomas, pages 356-357. $75-$150.

E. Ingraham Clock Co. “Western Union”, ca 1911.  Both glasses appear to be original and the paint is holding very well. The oak case is 36” high, clean and polished with pressed designs on the top and base. We bought it with a collection of excellent clocks from a retired executive collector. All his clocks will be in this auction, few have any apologies. Unfortunately the top glass was broken enroute to me. You can order replacement glasses from Timesavers. The original dial is signed, now slightly faded and worn and it has correct hands, and original brass bob on a wood stick. The movement is 8 day, time and calendar, and it is running. There is a label on the back.  Ly-Ingraham #377. $200-$300.

Waterbury Clock Co. “Crane”, ca 1906. Usually called just a shop clock or store regulator by clock collector’s, this one is all original but darkened over the original now crusty finish.

Well, here it is, complete (except for the top) and 100% original including a complete paper label inside and two on the back. Old dial, hands, Waterbury pendulum, and pendulum stick. The oak case should be 37” high but is now missing the top. Crowns and bases for store regulators can be ordered from Timesavers. It is 8 day, time only and running. I forgot to hang the pendulum when we had to reshoot this clock – sorry.  Ly-Waterbury #726. $100-$200.
