Any help on authenticity and value would be appreciated. I do know they make repops on these but not sure about this one. Thanks in advance

Always seeking vintage oil & gas advertising signs & clocks from the 1950's - 1970's, preferably lighted or light-up!

I believe these are old clock bodies with new faces on them. Others may chime in as well.

Fantasy. I have only seen two texaco clocks( both were swiharts) that I believed were real. As far as I know,Pam never made one,but as with all things,we haven't seen it all.

...I'm pretty sure a Pam clock would be from the 'white-T' era, if original...

A clock like that can be made with the parts currently being produced.

Is is always a good idea to own a old original and compare your knowledge of it with ones you see in your travels.

Was checking to see if this guy was making a texaco.he isn't,yet .,but if you want some examples of fakes,go thru his listings .he is flooding eBay with garbage.. He describes them with new faces,but once they leave him....gaurentee they will be out there listed as originals.
