E. Ingraham Clock Co. hanging clock, “Ionic”, ca 1911. The nice
rosewood case stands 22 inches high, darkened over time but very clean and polished. Other than a replaced paper dial the clock appears
to be completely original. The bottom glass has gold painted circles and behind the glass is a very ornate pendulum. Behind the pendulum
is a round black and gold label. The 8 day movement is running and striking as intended. Ly-Ingraham #365. $100-$200.

Wm. L. Gilbert Clock Co. box regulator, “Washington”, ca 1913.
This 38 inch high model was made in oak only but is so darkened now could pass for a much darker wood. It is not bad looking as it
is but would certainly look better if cleaned and polished. It may have even had a coat of mahogany stain applied to it sometime in
its existence. Both glasses look to be original, same with the signed dial, the hands, and the pendulum. On the back are the remnants
of a label. The 8 day time only movement is running. Ly-Gilbert #418. $150-$250.

E. Ingraham Clock Co. calendar wall clock – says the consignor
of these clocks. There is no label, the dial is not signed, well in fact the dial was surely repainted by a day nursery group of 3
year olds. Very poorly repainted. It may have an Ingraham movement in it but I believe the case is from some mysterious country far
far away. I cannot find this exact style case in any of Tran Duy Ly’s clock books. $25-$50.

“E. N. Welch Manufacturing Co.”, miniature steeple clock, ca 1878.
The mahogany veneered case is 17 ½ inches tall, original glasses, correct door knob/latch, good paper label, old brass pendulum, original
painted dial, and pair of hands. The 30 hour movement is time and alarm, and is running. Ly-Welch #400. $75-$150.

“Waterbury Clock Company, Waterbury, Conn.”, small gothic (steeple),
ca 1881. The rosewood veneered case stands 14 ½ inches tall, has two glasses, bottom probably a replacement, door latch, good original
painted dial, old hands, old pendulum bob and key, excellent paper label, coil gong and a 30 hour time and strike movement that is
running. The case is very nice, all original, has a couple of small veneer chips, but to be 150 years old is very insignificant. Ly-Waterbury
#1485. $75-$150.

“Jerome & Co., New Haven, Conn.” 8 day peak top cottage clock,
ca 1857. Clocks with this label were manufactured by the New Haven Clock Co. soon after it took over the Jerome Co. They were supplied
to Jerome & Co., Liverpool, England, and a few were sold in the US. This is the best example I have seen of the cottage clock
with two rosettes. Usually the rosettes are missing. The 16 inch rosewood case has been expertly restored, black around base repainted,
gold sections repainted, and generally superb all over. It has the correct door latch, perfect label on the door, original glasses,
original dial with a half dozen tiny flakes outside the chapter ring, probably replaced hands, and an old pendulum and key. This clock
is time and strike and has a separate alarm movement and bell in the case bottom. This is a keeper. Wish I had room. $150-$300.

“Jerome & Co., New Haven, Conn.”, 8 day octagon top cottage
clock, ca 1857. Made by New Haven Clock Co. (see #184) and sold to the Jerome & Co. Liverpool, England. This 16 inch high rosewood
case is also perfectly restored. Another keeper and this one has the rare Gutta Percha tablets. The door latch is correct, label is
perfect, coil gong, alarm movement and alarm bell in the base, old pendulum and key, I believe a repainted dial, and the 8 day time
and strike movement made by N. Pomeroy. A very unusual and rare cottage clock, that is outstanding. $150-$300.
186. $50
“New Haven Clock Co., New Haven, Conn.”, miniature steeple clock,
ca 1856. The rosewood veneered case stands 15 inches and the beautiful case is near perfect, complete and original. Has correct door
latch, glasses appear original but tablet has been rebacked. The one day movement is running and striking hours on an iron bell. Old
hands, pendulum, and key, and a complete paper label. Original dial has some small paint chips, the biggest bugaboo is around 5 o’clock
where apparently the key slipped when winding. $75-$150.

“Sessions Clock Co., Forestville, Conn.”, steeple clock, ca 1932.
This is their “Copley” model in a 15 ½ inch mahogany case, ivory colored artwork dial, tablet with ships painting, and most of a label
on the back. The 8 day time and gong striking movement is running and striking hours and half hours. I am not a Session connoisseur,
but it is nice. Ly-Sessions #612. $75-$150.
