C.1881, E. Ingraham and Co., "Dew Drop", 8-day barbershop wall timepiece/ Waterbury-Kramer replacement dial.

Condition - Rosewood grained case is in very nice condition with some of the original graining intact on the upper door. These timepieces were made to run backwards and would have been viewed by looking at the reflection in a mirror. Paper dial is a replacement /for Waterbury-Kramer Service Co/ on the original dial pan. Movement is signed Ingraham. Nice label inside case. This is the first Ingraham reverse-running clock we have ever seen, and although the dial makes it seriously suspect, the movement has no obvious alterations. You be the judge. Certainly a curiosity worth the estimate. Height 23.5 inches
