Ingraham "Itasca" Model Gingerbread Clock

Another lucky pawn shop find. The dial (which still needs attention) was covered in hideous white paint, in an attempt to hide stains, perhaps? The paint haphazardly covered the numerals like a two year old drawing over the lines. The finish on the clock was also terrible. So I stripped the dial and the case. Miraculously, the dial looks rather good, and the "Ingraham Clock Co." can still be read on the bottom. I will need to repaint the numbers.

The clock has a very worn label, but the model name Itasca can still be read, and well as the "Co."

Also note that the sides (and top, not shown) are all beaded. I have not seen this on many gingerbreads, but it's a nice touch.
