Grant PerryIngraham Regulator
Good morning:
Can someone tell me what the pendulum for this Hartford model Ingraham should look like? I assume that this is not the correct model. It looks too small to me.
Many thanks!

Michael CherryGreetings Grant, Your clock is shown in Tran Duy Ly's book "Ingraham Clocks and Watches" pg. 143 #382. I don't have capability to send pic., maybe someone else reading this post does and can do it for you. It does show the kind of pendulum for your clock. Definately not the one in your picture. Good luck, Mike C.

Dick FeldmanGrant,
I found the following in an old book by Roy Ehrhardt (1985) There is no more detail in the book than in my scan. Maybe someone else can come up with a picture with better detail.
Best Regards,
Dick

Grant PerryMany thanks fellas,
The clock is not mine. It is listed on e-Bay and I was thinking of bidding on it. How hard would it be to find an original pendulum?
Thanks again,
Grant

Tom SeymourGrant,
Neither LaRose or Merritt's show that pendulum in their catalog. Howeve, Merritt's has antique clocks as well as new parts and tools etc. They may mave an Ingraham pendulum bob on hand. I have found them very helpful in the past, and a phone call to them can certainly do no harm.
Their phone: (610) 689-9541 or (800) 345-4101
