My tiny collection of English Ingersoll clocks and wristwatches sold in the United Kingdom during the years 1934/36. Also their original boxes. Few were sold due to the depression and a relatively small market, perhaps
11k or less, compared to the U.S. where that same number was sold at
Macy's Department Store alone on the first days and went on to sell in
the millions.
awesome collection !!
Thank you for the love as always Manikin, and for your comment, I feel the same way when viewing your latest posts!
You know me and English Mickeys. Love them x
Wandlessfairy, we share much you and I and I'm grateful to be able to share a love
for these things with you. Hope you will be posting again soon.

Now, all of you, show me whatcha got!
Great collection. I was wondering about the signs standing behind the box and clock on the right. Are they original or repos. I do not have one with my box. Will show my collection when I get some free time
@Mickeysmagic. The price ticket on the right is an original, the one in the middle
is a reproduction. As always I will look forward to your posts!
Really, really Nice!!!!!
@kerry10456. Very special when Super collectors like yourself and Mickeymagic
appreciate the effort put forth, my sincerest thanks!

@vonsboy:
I had to love this again.....Great post and great pieces. Did MMWUK make the reproduction plague? It's an excellent job.
@kerry10456
I'm deeply flattered, am not familiar with MMWUK, who is that?
Am guessing someone in the U.K.?

Maurice haha! I had Anthony's Restorations in California clean up the box and
price ticket and they made an extra unasked for!

I also want to mention the folks at Clown Hamburgers, not because they
support me, they are neutral on my collecting habits,but because their
menu has supported 30+ years of my search for treasure.
Roddyq thank you for having a look and sharing a love!
Hello. Emails are a nitemare at the moment so will try and reply tomorrow but if not will have to wait till after holidays next week. Ps Clown Hamburgers ? Presuming a local burger joint. Great fun x
Wandlessfairy, sorry to hear of the email
Snafus, please do try again, am wondering
now if all mine are arriving unmolested?
Could do with a bit of a chat haha! And yes,
Have been eating beloved all American Clown
hamburgers since Nov. 1959!
Hello from Mexico. Will get in touch when I get back. Happy posting????
Still in Mexico but have been waiting patiently for a posting from you. Will post a mystery b4 I go so get your thinking cap on. Bye.
Hope Mexico is everything you hoped it would be and more, I'm afraid you have
seen my entire collection such as it is of our beloved Mickey. Unlike Kerry and
Mickeys Magic one small curio cabinet effortlessly holds all my tiny treasures.
Except for the one wristwatch I've mentioned I'm not seriously collecting any
longer which isn't to say I don't look at what comes to market because after many
years of very high prices, the Disneyana market right now is as softer than any
other time in my 30+ years of collecting and now is a great time for the beginning
collector to begin.
Hmmm that says to me that you might be persuaded to add to your collection if something catches your eye ha ha. I for one, am grateful for the help and advice you have offered so far and when my email is sorted, there will be more questions ???See what you make of my newest clock coz have no idea at all !!!
Yes, I haven't completely shut the door on new acquisitions but I'm only actively
looking for the one wristwatch. It has been and continues to be my pleasure to be
of service if I can, I have been fortunate to have been guided and mentored in my
own collecting efforts and am more than happy to give back. Apart from all that
I can qenuinely say that I have also enjoyed sharing my love and memories of my
beloved Britain with a true princess of the realm!
