General Electric Model 4H80 Tuscan, 1939. Very nice art deco clock with ebonized walnut on the front, top and back and zebrawood supports on the sides.
Picked this clock up today at a swap/junk shop for $4.50 plus tax. It was sold "as is". When I got it home and pluged it in nothing happened stuck it next to my ear no humming. Then I looked at the plug on the cord it was lose, replaced the plug, and pluged it in and off it went. It hums a little after warming up, but it is a beautiful art deco clock.
The clock stands 6.5 inches tall and just over 8 inches wide.
According to compay records 7,475 were sold.
