I was out today in a little town in Indiana. The store I stopped at was going out of business and everything was being sold. I ask the lady there if the Coca-Cola clock was one of the items being sold and she said it was. She gave me a price and now it's hanging on the kitchen wall.
Well after a few days in the kitchen, I decided it was to big and bright and would look better on the enclosed back porch with the rest of things. So it got moved off the top of refrigerator and now is hanging on the porch.
Coca Cola ClocksCoca-Cola began advertising its products on clocks in 1893, when such novel…
Great grab official!! Hope you weren't on the Harley when you picked this one,,,lol.
That clock is about 36" x 30 somethin" BIG! These can go for pretty serious dough.
NICE ONE!!! One just went on ebay for quite a bit too.
Some have black hands and some, like yours, have yellows hands.
LOVE YOURE SIGN BIG GUY!!!!!!

I missed this last night? Very nice! your lucky to walk up to a closeing store and get this! Its sad to see small stores closeing, see it up here too.
I don't suppose you'll divulge the price you stole this, I mean bought this for? Nice pick officialfuel! Feel free to donate it to the "TGBWC-8-Pack-Society-for-the- Preservation-of-Vintage-Coca-Cola-Neon-Clocks."

EJW-54 the store is closing because the owner passed away and the wife said she is ready to retire. She said they have been doing it for over forty years. She said she was going to travel and enjoy the rest of her life doing what she wanted to do. Good for her!!

Thank you kerry10456 for the love!! Have a great weekend! :-)
This same clock is on eBay right now...up to $1,675 (reserve not met). I've seen these sell for well over $2,000. So I'd say officialfuel picked(up) a great clock...of course, we don't know how much you paid for it. Ball park figure...? Us Coke collectors love seeing these great picks...but we also love finding out how much one paid for it.
Great find officialfuel! Thats the baby I've been lookin for for my clock collection, impossible to find here in "the Great White North". Thats a stellar piece of Coca-Cola history, every CC collector would die for!! Looks awesome in the "kitch", now you can find the fridge day or night!
Love you clock, Michael
Thanks TGBWC for stopping by. I was taught along time ago not to tell someone what you paid because when and if you sell it they only want to give you just a few dollars over what you paid instead the real value I could get out of it. I think you understand where I am coming from and if you don't I'm sorry that's just the way I am, again thanks for looking and have a great Christmas!
Thank you pickrknows for stopping by and loving the clock. I was just at the right spot at the right time. Have a great Christmas!
Thank you sanhardin and egreeley1976 for the love!! Merry Christmas :-)
Good advice officialfuel. Christmas came early. Merry Christmas!
officalfuel heres the South Dakota weather report: Dec. 18 11:15 a.m. currently 54 degrees clear and sunny, our front yard is clear and dry, our back yard (in the shade has 3" of snow.
I just keep coming back to admire that clock! It's good to know that theres finds like that still out htere. Did you happen to get a picture of it while was still in the store? It would be great to record the history of it. Merry Christmas to you.
rocker-sd I thought there would be alot of snow out there this time of year. No snow here in Indiana. I love driving around and looking for things. Just about everything on my site is from here in Indiana. Some how things always turn up for me, just lucky I guess. I do have a picture of the clock when it was hanging in the store. Good suggestion, I will keep for my records. Have a Merry Christmas.
pickrknows, I saw you posted something and the next thing I know it was deleted by CollectorsWeekly. Got your message but I'm sure this will be hanging around for quite sometime, thank you and have a Merry Christmas! :-)
