The mahogany veneer is excellent, with one old chip at the very tip (not noticeable). The signature is faded on the original dial, but still legible. The movement is signed "New Haven Clock Co, CT, USA", and lines up perfectly with the original blocks and dial. Note that E and A Ingraham at this time bought their movements from other makers and cased them with their own label. Coincidentally, New Haven in the 1853-56 period, made movements for Jerome and others. Great original finish on this case, and the cut and frosted heart tablet is original as well. Height 19 inches
