Hello: I just accquired a Sidney Clock..however the ads that are to be in the 3 rotating bottom cylinders are missing. The cylinders are there but the ads are all gone. Does anyone know where I might get some nice copies of ads that would go into those cylinders?? Or, would anyone know how to make ads for those cylinders?? Thank you, Orville

Since most Sidney clocks (if not all) were focused on a specific locale, you need to research the general area or city) and time period for your specific locale e.g. typical advertisers for 1890 to 1910 in your home city. Then use old paper (like scrapbook paper) to print out appropriate advertisers and artwork for your locale. Hey! you can't be wrong! because your are the authority.
