Thats a late 50's pam clock.  Anything under $200 for one in good shape is a good price.  You have to be careful because they reproduce the face and people replace the original face with reproductions.  The one pictured appears to be original.

Hmm... I'd make sure the paints not chipping off the back-glass, look by the minute hand & just above the "C" in "Cola", it may be some paint loss...  oh 


the frames a little dulled from some corrosion, which isn't unusual for this style of clock

I used to be heavy into these clocks, but now I will NOT but one from Ebay, as there are just FAR TOO MANY fakes out there!!!
I would just stay with antique shows etc. This way I can see what Im getting.

Just my thought (as I have been burned before with getting a fake on Greed bay)

I would, for $125 you're buying what looks good .... a repop  can cost that much. but look it over good, it should be nice and heavy. Also, if you get it check if can see a date on the clock motor.
