    Hey there Jack. This model is called "Colby" and was introduced around 1915. It was was a popular model and made for several years. When Ingraham came out with their new movement in the 20's they just gave it an upgrade. The dial is made of what they call Iveroid and you are fortunate to have one in good shape. You are right about the convex glass, that is what they used. You certainly made that case look real nice!! Thanks for showing this nice clock and take care. Best regards, Ab.

      Thanks so much for the info... Through the years, most labels have been destroyed or removed. In this case, there was no back on the clock where the label might have bee... It's really nice to know what Model the clock is....It would be safe to assume that the Speed control moved up to the top around 1915, then... I know I have another Ingram from 1911 and the speed control is still a slot above the hands....

      As far as working on a clock case,, I just the technics of detailing a car....I was an auto glass installer for 43 years and spent many an hour working in Body Shops.... Sometimes, I will use rubbing compounds and polishing compounds to revive the finish, no different than a car finish.... Same thing, only different!.... I have refinished guitar bodies from bare wood, but never a clock... I try and leave the original finish alone and maybe touch it up here and there.... I respray an old dingy gold pendulum, but never the ornate clock parts....I got an old Gilbert Jet clock where someone, through the years, tried to paint gold on the orate designs engraved in the ebony clock case....Looked terrible.... I laid her down on the table, got some rubbing compound and buffed that crap right off... Glad I took the chance on it... The clock now has a place in our living room....

      @@jackoshaw Forgot to mention, some of the Ingraham wood cases had a date stamp on the bottom as well, sometimes hard to see.

      @@time4clocks I will have to look at some of my Ingrahams and see if I can find a stamp on the case.... I always found the date and most times the month right on the movement... I have a couple of old ones that just have a patent date on the movement.... One mantle clock I have is stamped, 1879, but it's the patent date... I believ it to bo from 1880... I think that's when they started selling their black mantles....

    Cool, I have the same works, but it is missing the verge assembly though to the pendulum and the speed adjustment. I don't have a case for it but would like to find the needed parts, could you help with that?

      I would suggest watching E Bay for a movement.... There are always movement s available that would fit your clock, especially an Ingraham...
