Thread: Ingraham Drop Octagon

  1. Default Ingraham Drop Octagon

    I found this E. Ingraham Drop Octagon 12-inch drop, 25inches high clock at an auction. But it is missing the dial, pan, glass & bezel. I see that clock suppliers have different sizes available, but what size would fit this case? Thanks

    On my Ingraham 25" drop octagon, which looks much like yours, the dial pan measures 13" diameter (outside rim to outside rim), with a 13" bezel (inner rime to inner rim), and a 12.5" glass. Paper dial is about 11.25" diameter. Mine is from the 1930's; so I can't say if my dimensions would exactly mirror those on yours.

    Yep! Same one I had for a long time. No longer have it but a very nice clock. I called mine, "ropey oak". Outer bezel can pretty much be determined by measurement of space available to fill the opening. Pretty much the same for dial. I believe mine had common spade hands.
    Nice clock.

    Wayne.....I'd watch eBay for a parts clock or loose parts. They come up from time to time. The repro stuff stands out like a sore thumb..IMOP.
