The E. Ingraham Company, Bristol, Conn., wall calendar named, "Ionic Calendar", ca 1886. This model has a 12" time dial and a 10" calendar dial, and 5 hands. I assume the top dial is original and the bottom is a replacement. The rosewood case is 29.5" high, very dark from years in a coal burning and/or cigarette smoking house. Never cleaned, now crusty and black looking. The rosewood would be beautiful if cleaned. Excellent dials inside, in fact near perfect. One on the backboard, one over the calendar movement in the door. This may be the only clock that has heavy oversized hinges on the doors. I am sure it is because the doors are so heavy, particularly the lower which has the calendar movement in it. The upper movement is signed, 8 day, and time only. Inside is a period brass pendulum bob and an old signed Ingraham winding key. Overall the clock is in very good condition, has two great movements, and is performing properly.
