• Upcoming updates
    Over the next couple of weeks we will be performing software updates on the forum. These will be completed in small steps as we upgrade individual software addons. You might occasionally see a maintenance message that will last a few minutes at most.

    If we anticipate an update will take more than a few minutes, we'll put up a notice with estimated time.

    Thank you!

    Ingraham Mantle Clock ca. 1920 Regulation

    Looks good to me. Would it be best if I weighed the existing bob first for comparison purposes or isn't the weight as important as the size? Thanks very much for posting this!

    Ingraham Mantle Clock ca. 1920 Regulation

    Last year my sister moved and wanted me to have our dad's mantle clock which apparently had been in the family since before he was born. The case I believe was stripped and refinished and it looks really good, quarter-sawn oak, beautiful grain. It has an Ingraham movement and is quite attractive...
