1931 Noah's Ark Childen's Lamp Clock
(Item: XC-100)
ANTIQUE NOAH'S ARK
NOVELTY CLOCK and LIGHT
A CUTE AND HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE
CHILDREN'S NOVELTY CLOCK AND LAMP.
WHAT A GREAT NIGHT LIGHT IN A
CHILD'S ROOM
THIS UNUSUAL DECORATIVE
ACCENT PIECE WAS PATENTED ON JANUARY 6, 1931.
IT WAS MADE SO THAT IT COULD
BE USED AS BOTH A LIGHT AND TO KEEP TIME.
THE ARK WITH IT'S RED ROOF AND
ANIMALS IN THE WINDOWS IS VERY CLEVER. THE LIGHT SHINES THROUGH THE WINDOWS
AND THE BACK DOOR. THE ORIGINAL BACK DOOR IS MISSING AND HAS BEEN REPLACED
WITH TRANSLUCENT PLASTIC ( GIVES BETTER LIGHT NOW ).
THE CLOCK HAS IT'S ORIGINAL BEZEL,
HANDS, FACE AND GLASS. HOWEVER, THE 30 HOUR MOVEMENT COULD NOT BE REPAIRED
AND SO I REPLACED IT WITH A QUARTZ MOVEMENT.
DIMENSIONS;
13 INCHES WIDE
8 INCHES HIGH
5 1/2 INCHES DEEP
$195
NOAAH'S ARK WITH LIGHT ON
