E Ingraham Co. “Bartholdi”, ca. 1896. A 40-inch walnut case with an old finish and a light patina. All the carvings, applied ornaments, and finials are present and look correct. The door glass is old, the dial is new glossy paper and the hands are correct. The dial board differs slightly from the catalog illustration (Ly, Ingraham Clocks & Watches, page 144) with the addition of a small piece to hide the top of the pendulum rod; it looks to be the same age as the dial board and so is probably a factory modification. The 8-day, time and half-hour strike movement is signed and running, regulated by an Ingraham large pendulum bob with a brass rod cover and striking on a cathedral gong with a nice sound. No label. One of Ingraham’s nicest wall models, but not common; AAC sold an oak version last summer for $250. $200–$400.
