I have AutoLite Battery glass that is correct for that clock depending on your frame size. Photo on my website. T-Way should be able to help you with custom glass for your clock Jim www.PetroRelics.comClock Parts, Restorations

Besides the terrific work that T-ways graphics offers , I imagine anyone who does Silk screen work could do a glass, even you could provided you wanted to set of a couple of screens to do one . Ed Shaver
see ya on the road folks !

Just be sure that whomever you use you understand up front whether you will be getting a painted (screened) or a piece of vinyl stuck on a piece of glass.

Good point Dave, I don't care for the vinyl sticker on glass. Forget about illumination. I'm attempting to make a rare top that sits on an Erie clockface with tall Mobilgas ad glass, check out Jack's Bible and you'll see which pump I'm talking about. Making that glass with the skinny lines screened in will be no picnic.

You can get either decals/vinyl lettering on glass (inexpensive), or full-blown screened/fired ad glass panels (expensive).
Either the Clock Panel (above) or the Erie/Mobilgas panels would be three-color projects. Both would be a custom sized project (for me anyway). You would need artwork plus three films and three screens each in order to recreate either of these panels. Plus, I'd need to have custom-sized screen frames made and a specific glass holding form for the screening table for each project.
If anyone is interested in a firm Quote - contact me with your requirements and I'll get a Quote back to you within 48 hours.
