Hi,

 It looks good, I like it. One way to tell if the clock movement is original is to watch the seconds hand, if it moves in a constant swapping movement it's likely an original with a internal flywheel,  unlike to today's movements that moves in 1 second steps.  As far as price I would say 100~200 base on condition, I sure some of our experts will chime in with a more accurate price.

The questions is, are you buying it as a collector or something to sell for a profit.  IF you are buying as a collector then pay what you feel comfort with.

Good luck
Ray

      I'm not an expert, but Cleveland clocks seem to bring more $$ than most others because of their large size. I'd say more like $500 to $1000.

I agree with Glen. $100-200 would be a steal.

$600 is quite good. Especially with the advertising marquee. Usually above a grand for those. I just about picked one up at an antique store a couple years ago and regreted passing on it. Ever since, I have been on the prowl.

Chiming in late, but yeah 600 is a fair deal for sure..
The Coke ones usually go for at least 1000 for a nice one.

I picked up mine for 250.00 from a guy who had it hanging in his garage and when i offered 250 he almost fell over...
