All of the pictures of clocks I posted above are courtesy of Aumman Auctions. THANKS!

Sorry for the size of those last four pictures. I forgot to edit them before I uploaded them.

Those pictures were also sent in by Aumman Auctions. Thanks!

Another great COTW topic by Scott. I can't wait to see what else gets posted. All of these clocks are cool, but I really like the Cities Service clock the best.
Lets see some more!!!!

THIS BELIEVE IT OR NOT THIS IS MY ONE & ONLY CLOCK. I GOT IT FROM A FRIEND WHO WORKS IN A CAR DEALERSHIP THAT WAS MOVING LAST YEAR. I REMEMBER SEEING THE CLOCK BUT IT WAS REALLY HURTIN'. HE GAVE IT TO ME AND SAID THAT SOME GUY GOT SO HOT UNDER THE COLLAR ONE AFTERNOON, THAT HIS FIST CAME IN HARD CONTACT WITH THE PLASTIC FACE OF THIS 1980'S QUAKER STATE CLOCK. I SET ALL OF THE CRACKED PLASTIC (NONE BROKEN OUT OR MISSING) BACK TOGETHER AND STRAIGHTENED OUT THE HANDS, GOT A NEW BULB, BALLAST AND STARTER.
THE FACE IS SOMEWHAT YELLOWED FROM THE BULB AND CIGARETTE SMOKE, BUT STILL LOOKS 100% BETTER THAN IT'S ARRIVAL! I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY CALL ME THE "DOCTOR!"
TAKE A LOOK.....

Here are a couple great clocks, I owned the first one about five years ago, sold it and still regretting it. The second one may be a one off repro, but its still a nice piece.

Scot Thanks for posting my Mobil clock.

Take away the pump ad glass and the decal and that's what my former Coke clock looked like. I thought it looked better this way.

Nothing really special in my clock collection. Can't afford those cool PAM clocks so I have been concentrating on the 60's-80's stuff. Would love to have some of the clocks that you guys are showing though. Forgive me if my link doesnt work. May have to have someone post my pictures for me. http://www.msnusers.com/GameRoomPhotos/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=1 http://www.msnusers.com/GameRoomPhotos/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=4 http://www.msnusers.com/GameRoomPhotos/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=7

Sorry guys, my pictures didn't post, just the links. Still need some help on getting the photos to show up. Oh well.

Tried to post your photos for you, but they
don't come up. Could be because they're
stored on MSN?

Here is the pictures that "c cragg" sent in.
