WOOHOO! What a find! I have had my eye on this and contacted the seller last night on the phone and we reached agreement on the terms (which involves some trading-LOL). I will probably be going to pick it up later today. It is a lighted clock advertising shoe repairing products from Cats Paw and Cat Tex. Given my love for collecting shoe/foot stuff and the fact I do this in my occupation it is a great fit. I noticed one of the two bulbs in it wasnt lit when I first saw it, but it is very simple wiring and may just be the bulb. Either way I will fix it. Once I get it home I will take some better pictures to post. I LOVE IT, thanks Ron!

Have updated the photos since I picked this up Monday. I replaced the bottom bulb and it is now working fine. I have hung it at my office in my orthotic lab where we do shoe modifications and such. The man I got it from threw in an original box of the Cat's Paw heels that this clock advertises. I love it!
thanks bellin!
