Default GE Advertising Clock

Hello, All!

I'm a newby with a question. I have an advertising clock I inherited from my grandfather. I wasn't too bright when I got it. I put it out in my work area of my hay barn. Now, before you start throwing things, let me ask the question... It has some damage done to the reverse painted dial due to muddobber's nesting in it. When I popped off the nests it took the paint with them.

Is there any way to replace this?

Hi, bad tube, welcome to the message board. Sorry we missed your thread. The only suggestion I can come up with is to have it professionally restored by a dialpainter. Matching colors is the hard part. Let us know if you want a few recommendations.
