Description

this rare model Baird has been over painted in a chocolate brown color. The dial is a replacement and the top door has been reglued and the glass in the lower door is absent. A similar example can be found in Jerry Maltz's "Baird Advertising Clocks" on pages 54 and 55. The advertising on the lower door on our example differs slightly from the example in Maltz's book, making this rare model even more unusual. Ht 31"
