This item for sale, is a copy of the famous and collectable, Texaco Pam type "Light Up" glass
advertising clocks of the 1940's and 1950's. This clock has the TEXACO Oil Company Star logo on the inner glass. The numbers, and TEXACO are in black, the star is bright red, and has a large green T in the middle of the star. This is a beautiful electric clock,
that is illuminated from the rear, using 2, 11 watt incandesant bulbs. Bulbs are included and can be changed
from the rear. This clock is 15 inches in diameter, and has a inner and outer
glass face. The advertising is silk screened on the inner glass. The
hands operate between the inner and outer glasses. This design is one of the more collectible clocks from the 40's and 50's. This is a beautiful and fully functional clock
that should last for many years. The clock works are made by the same company that made the origional works for these clocks.
The clock movement is made by Synchron- Hansen and are made in the USA from brass, not plastic.This is not a cheap quartz clock. The entire clock is American made.
The case is made from aluminum, and weighs 7 pounds. The time set knob is on the bottom. The origional clocks have been running for over 50 years,
I see no reason this clock should not last just as long, and will surely increase in value. If you can not afford an origional in the $400 to $600 price range, this is a way to get the same look for a lot less cash. Made in the USA Shipping is $25.00 in the USA UPS Oversize.
