Unfortunately, I don't know a whole lot about pricing and what most of these things are or what they might be worth.  I figure if I find something that looks like it might be unusual or not badly priced that I can post it on here in hopes of learning more or helping someone find something to add to their collection.  Not sure how many members are in my neck of the woods, so maybe I'll find something others don't normally come across.  If folks are tired of me posting stuff or asking too many questions, please let me know and I'll back off!   biggrin

Here's another Dr. Pepper clock I just came across if you're interested.

Oh, haha, took me a sec to realize what you meant about being camoflaged!!!  How funny...wood grain on wood grain.  I'm guessing you're looking for the ones that are a bit older than this one?  I'll keep you in mind if I come across anymore.

jbrooks,
I like that!
Just curious....On restoring clocks - is it frowned upon, is it cost prohibitive....
I would imagine advertising clock collectors do restore some of them?
I don't see them listed as restored much, but I don't search for clocks avidly. Is there a price guide for advertising clocks or is Petretti's Soda Pop Guide all there is?
