Which clock?
Ok the first one is a 1928 Sessions single train, time only clock. The second one is a 1923 Ingraham dual train, Strike and Time clock.
I can’t decide which one to put on the mantle so I’m leaving this decision to the virtual world.
What do you think, the Sessions or the Ingraham?
I just finished inspecting, cleaning and oiling both of them so either way they are ready to tick and to tock away, happily.
Now, please do not think the striking on the half as well the hour is a negative. I have a grandfathers and a cookoo clock striking as well so the added noise is not a big deal. Ok, ok, so I’m leaning towards the Ingraham but the final decision is on yous’ guys’. So, vote early and vote often. Remember, the old saying…..Vote while it’s still legal!

Don’t forget, it’s still International Delurking Weekend!!!






If the noise doesn’t bother you, on pure aesthetics alone, I’d say the one on the right.
I like the Sessions, when it comes down to style, yet I like the Ingraham, for its functionality. I didn’t really give you an answer, did I? Myself, I like the Sessions, because it has curves like a woman. lol
Seriously, I don’t have a clue!
The one on the left. I say this out of aethetics. It fills the space on your mantle without overwhelming it. it also is not too tall (and encroaching upon the picture).
I should have explained better. The Sessions is on the left and the Ingraham is on the right.
-Julianna, encroaching on the painting eh? I hadn’t thought of that but now that you say that, it does.
I’m tall and get accused of hanging pictures too high but that one can’t go any higher. If I do hang it higher then I’ll be the only one who can see it. Ha!
Hmmmmmm, Julianna may have nailed this one but I’m gonna’ give it a few days and see what other suggestions I get.
I have a clock like the Sessions, and I think it is a better looking “mantle” clock.
I vote for Sessions!
Well, The Ingraham won. That’s the one on the right. Julianna brought up a good point but it is a much nicer clock and I like the sound it makes when it strikes. So it is the winner.
