Where did you find it? If I can ask, what did you have to give for it?

I've don't think I've ever seen a Pam with the signage underneath like that, but I am definately no clock expert. Thanks.

It is a Pam, I got it upstate NY he wanted $300 I paid $200 but he was a cool guy and I hung out and helped him clean out an estate for hours so he gave me a break on it, I also got some nice Fireston signs too, may post them on Oldgas

Yes definately a PAM Clock... you can tell by the hands..
Tom, The cleveland clocks had light up marquees generally and are much bigger..
The maker of the marquee addition to the bottom of this clock also made them for Coke ,there are two versions that can attach to 16" coke buttons... they are all made of tin with painted graphics.

Ken, Old Gas is another site with discussion forum like this , only it's 95% Gas and oil Related Topics, Great site and good bunch of guys.. another one is Cheeses Pit Stop.. Google them you'll find them..

I actually bid on a clock just like that on Ebay last month and lost out at the last second.  From what I remember, it sold for 330ish with me and the other guy goin back and forth.

NICE FIND!!!

I usually only do the soda stuff... but hot dawgs go with soda!  :happydrinkers:

The seller of my clock actually sent me the ebay link to that sale using it as his reason for his asking price.  I think the one on ebay was near mint, mine has a few minor blemishes

Very nice. And I like the fact that it looks different from what we normally see.

Congrats!
