<p>[QUOTE="Deeto, post: 11245947, member: 96214"]I'm not able to post a picture of my clock, but I got it at a yard sale for a dollar because the cord was missing. There are two horizontal prongs about the same length that today's prongs are, that the plug would have plugged into at the clock. When it was fixed, the clock repair man said that it would be too dangerous to put an original plug on it so he put a more modern one on. He also painted over the metal back. My mother thinks that he ruined the antique quality. He also said that it was probably from the sixties, but everyone else thinks that couldn't be true because of the removable plug.</p><p>It's about a foot high, rounded at the top and goes straight down on the sides. It's made of wood with a gold face and every number is on it. Between the center and the six is a wiggly style of "SANGAMD" written forming an oval. It has a beautiful chime and it also has battery back up that lasts at least two hours. Probably much more, I really never checked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
