Advertising ClocksAdvertising clocks have been made in a wide range of materials and styles, …
VERY cool clock. You see the neon quaker state models on ebay maybe once a year, as the incandescent version is much more common. This clock wasn't in any books I have, but was probably made by Neon Products of Lima Ohio, right around 1947. They would date stamp the case on the outside, so it's easy to wear right away. Yours looks to be in good shape with working neon...nice pick-up!
Hi This clock is a cool clock , these clocks were generally made by Time-O-Graph and in Indiana, I think Elkhart or Kokomo, this style was also made by Associated neon products in Indianapolis, also known as Neocraft at some point, this particular stamping shape is what I used to make my reproduction clocks I make them new and this stamping shape is real cool, to see my clocks go to http://www.krankerclocks.com I have been having fun and making some cool clocks . these spinner clocks are real cool, Nice find its a keeper, Love it
