E. Ingraham & Co. shelf clock, as identified by the original printed label inside the case reading "Eight and One Day Brass Clocks, Elias Ingraham's Patent, Sept. 30, 1862, Re-issued March 31, 1866, Manufactured and Sold by E. Ingraham & Co., Bristol, Conn.," dating to the third quarter of the 19th century. The mahogany case features a molded cornice top with contrasting black and gold painted columns, and the lower door displays a reverse-painted glass tablet. The paper dial features bold Roman numerals with green scrolled floral medallions in each corner, and the brass movement is visible through the open door with its coiled mainspring and pendulum suspension intact above the original printed instruction label. Includes a key that turns appropriately, with the movement chiming at the hour mark. The movement appears to be working properly and is in very good condition. The back of the clock has been replaced. Dimensions: 15"W X 22"H
