Adding an old alarm clock to my inventory [View all]

I wound it up and it works. I'm listening to the ticking. I think most of us in my age group heard the sound of a ticking clock when we were growing up. I haven't heard it for a long time. I'm not sure it is calming or nerve-wracking, but pretty sure I won't rewind after it runs down.

It is a cool alarm clock. Double brass bells on top, the body is painted red, and the face is made so that the works are visible. The gears are different colors. Interesting. Made by Robertshaw Controls Company Lux Time Division Lebanon, TN USA
