oooh, nice clock johnie.  I don't know a ton about how to value them other than what I see here, on oldgas and using Feebay as a guide.  I think it is best to get them working and clean them up unless they are really bad.  Sort of like all the stuff we like here, keep it as original as possible

Here's a small collection that has a nice looking clock in it that you may be interested in.  Unfortunately, looks like you'd have to take the whole lot.  Clock may be worth it though.  Contact him and see what it is if you're interested!

The clock is a repro, as most of the stuff they are selling. Maybe 60 for the lot...

This is more gas related as it came off of a service station in NJ and I posted it on oldgas but for any not a member there I figured you might get a kick out of this one.  It needs some work but under the guaranteed used cars sign is the original sign, I have no idea what it is going to be, I feel like a kid at Christmas.  Boy did this satisfy my clock fix for a while.

Nice Cleveland clock Brooks.........Is it a keeper? I've been searching for one with a blue bulls-eye center.

Brooks,
   Here's a clock that looks really nice.  I think it's a bit overpriced to me, but maybe it's worth it?  I have no idea on what these things go for, just seems high to me.  Either way, looks to be a really nice clock!

I would be careful of that Dr. Pepper clock, anyone else think it may be a fantasy piece?  I just got a great deal on this Champion Spark Plug clock and on Oldgas they said they think its just an old clock with a decal.

The red 10, 2 and 4   numbers make me think the Dr Pepper clock is legit. I thought it was a decal on the face at first also.
