Waterbury Clock Co. Ships Bell, ca 1914. I cannot find this identical clock in the Ly-Waterbury ships clock section, but our clock is almost identical. The polished brass case has a 6-inch flange on the bottom, 5 ½ inch on the top. The bezel is hinged and holds a flat glass. Dial is 4 inches, painted with black paint, and is signed, “Manufactured By Waterbury Clock Co. U.S.A.”. The movement is time and ships strike and it is running. Ly-Waterbury #2090. $300-$500.

American Clock Company iron front shelf clock, ca 1851. This company did not make clocks but sold for several different clock companies. This iron front case is 15 inches high, has the original paint and other accessories. It has the original lower hinged door and glass, two good sashes, original paper dial, correct hands, coil gong, and pendulum.  A complete paper label is inside. The movement is 30-day time and strike, and it is running.  $100-$150.

“New Haven Clock Co., New Haven, Conn.”, 8-day time and strike banjo clock, ca 1910. The mahogany case with eagle on top is 36 inches tall, missing the side rails, but appears complete otherwise. The metal dial is showing slight wear on the silver, the hands and pendulum are correct, and the glasses are very nice. There is a complete label on the back but it does not show a model name and I cannot identify the model in Ly-New Haven. It certainly is not a cream puff, but surely worth our minimum. $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. $100-$150.

803.           $50

Waterbury Clock Co. “Crane”, ca 1906. Usually called just a shop clock or store regulator by clock collectors, this one is all original but darkened over the original now crusty finish. Many of you like clocks that are all original no matter how dark or untouched. 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, 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. Ly-Waterbury #726. $75-$150.

Seth Thomas Clock Co., Thomaston, Conn. mantel clock and City Series clock, “Athens”, ca 1880. In a walnut case standing 17 inches tall, plain but attractive. It is all original inside and out, clean and polished. The dial is original as is the nickel accessories, bell and pendulum. The dial rings are brass. The one-day movement is running and striking the nickel bell as is the separate alarm movement that also rings on the same nickel bell. The glass may be a replacement. Note the winding hole for the alarm is in the bottom of the dial board. Ly-Seth Thomas, page 185. $50-$100.

E. Ingraham & Co. long drop wall clock, “Bristol”, ca 1891. The 31-inch rosewood case is very attractive. The Ingraham catalogs say they made this model in imitation oak. Don’t think so. The wood is dark, but clean and polished. I don’t see any of the usual edge dings or other case issues you might see on a 120-year-old clock case. The paper dial is a replacement, hands are correct, there is a paper label inside, and a super nice brass pendulum bob and stick. The brass is all polished bright including the dial ring and pendulum. The glass with the gold border is old. The movement is 8-day, time only, running enthusiastically. Ly-Ingraham #404. $100-$200.

806.           $50

E. N. Welch Mfg. Co. Forestville, Conn. parlor clock, “Donita”, ca 1882. The two labels on the back are obliterated but this is the same clock we have mentioned before that Welch made this model for the “Metropolitan Manufacturing Co.”. The movement is signed by Welch, the pendulum is one of Welch’s, as are the gongs, bells, and alarm movement. Some clocks have been seen that Ingraham made for Metropolitan at a New York City address. Apparently someone thought about cleaning the dark crusty case, note the very bottom that is partially cleaned, but decided it was more than they wanted to tackle. The walnut case is 27 inches high, the glass with “Father Time” and the “Artist” is excellent, and the original dial is slightly soiled. Ly-Welch #423. $50-$100.

E. Ingraham Clock Co. calendar wall clock – says the consignor of these clocks. There is no label, the dial is not signed, and was surely repainted. It may have an Ingraham movement in it but I believe the case is foreign. I cannot find this exact style case in any of Tran Duy Ly’s clock books.  E. N. Welch Manufacturing Company’s wood mantel clock, the “Dickens”.  Someone added a base and made it a wall clock. The Dickens is one of Welch’s clocks in “The Authors” series. It is black walnut, clean and nice. The dial was repainted, hands replaced, has good brass rings and gong base, clean as a pin 8-day movement, plus an alarm movement and separate brass bell. The pendulum is one of Welch’s fancy glass ones. Two labels on the back are pretty much gone. Ly-Welch, page 385. $50-$100.

808.           $50

E. Ingraham & Co. mantel clock with upper calendar, “Gila”, ca 1915. The oak case is 23 inches tall, has pressed designs all over, original glass, replaced paper dial, three hands, coil gong, and the 8-day time, strike, and calendar movement and it is running. Ly-Ingraham, page 312. $50-$100.

809.           $100

German wall clock, ca 1920’s. This is a very heavy oak cased clock, 37” high, balcony type with a fancy brass pendulum. The pendulum is hanging low to show in the picture. The front of the case has columns and carved objects on the base. The wood has some carving and grooved designs over the front. The movement is attached to a slide in seat board. It is in very good overall condition, and in running condition. The movement is 8-day and strikes a large iron coil gong. The movement is signed only, “Patent /154590”. The large pendulum is signed but I cannot decide the maker because a couple of letters are obscured.  $100-$150.

810.           $50

Sessions Clock Company, Bristol, Conn., metal cased mantel clock, “Diana”, ca 1910. For Sessions this is a large metal clock, 17 inches high and originally with a bronze finish, now dark but still a nice-looking clock. The dial paper was replaced, hands look to be correct, has a brass bezel with flat glass, and a pendulum and key. Not sure if the pendulum is original. Ly-Sessions #423. $50-$100.
