THERE ARE SOME KILLER PIECES SO PLEASE CHECK BACK. THIS IS AN ULTRA RARE AND UNIQUE, ORIGINAL ART DECO CLOCK. THIS PIECE WAS DESCRIBED TO ME AS A FRANKART OR QUOIZEL CLOCK, NOT AVAILABLE IN THEIR REGULAR CATALOGS. THE BASE WITH HAND AND ASHTRAY IS A FRANKART T357 SMOKER’S SET, THIS ONE HAVING AN OCTAGONAL”NEW HAVEN” BRAND CLOCK IN THE HAND INSTEAD OF THE STANDARD ISSUE BOX!!! THE BASE IS SIGNED PAT. , JUST LIKE THE FRANKART T357 (SEE PHOTO). THE CLOCK IS NOT “FRANKENSTEINED”, OR ADDED LATER TO THE BASE; THE WELDS ARE EXPERTLY HIDDEN, AND THE ORIGINAL PAINT COVERED BOTH THE CLOCK AND BASE AS ONE UNIT. CLOCK AND BASE ARE PAINTED IN ORIGINAL GUNMETAL PAINT, SOME CHIPS AND MISSING SPOTS IN THE PAINT (SEE PHOTOS). THE ORIGINAL JADITE GREEN GLASS ASHTRAY IS ALSO IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE FELT IS STILL ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BASE. THIS IS THE ONLY EXAMPLE OF THIS CLOCK I HAVE EVER HEARD OF, EVEN THE HARDCORE FRANKART EXPERTS HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER ONE!!! THIS IS A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME PIECE I WAS PROUD TO HAVE IN MY COLLECTION, AND PROBABLY THE ONLY ONE LEFT IN EXISTENCE!!!!
