This is the Big Ben "Sculpture" alarm clock. It consists of a style 8 Big Ben mounted on a tall pedestal base. It was first made in England, then the LaSalle, Illinois, USA factory began to make it too. It is shown in USA catalogs starting with the 1975 – 76 issue and was made in “stardust blue”, “field green” and “radiant red”.
Shown above are:
Model 10082, Stardust Blue, made in USA from 1975 - 1979
Model 10086, Radiant Red, made in USA from 1975 - 1978
A model from Scotland
Alarm ClocksAlarm clocks go back to the ancient Greeks. Their clocks ran on water, drip…
I am looking for a Big Ben "Sculputra" Style 8 Alarm Clocks. If anyone has one in good condition and it works, please let me know. I am looking to purchase one. Thanks.
I recently saw a photo of three Sculptura made in Canada and there was a lovely purple one as well from their factory I presume.
Like Eddie, I am looking for one to buy as well. Must be in good working order - I don't have any interest in repairing clocks, I just like to use them as, well, clocks! LOL!
