Hello everyone,
I picked this up for a buck at a yard sale yesterday, mainly just because I thought it looked cute--imagine my shock when I plugged it in, set the time, and discovered it worked perfectly... Anyway, I was hoping someone might be able to tell me more about it, because the internet just isn't helping me the way I expected it to with information on this.
In case you can't see in the pictures, the front says, "United" above the sunburst and "Made in U.S.A" below. On the back, the mechanism box reads, "Use on A.C. Current only, 60 cycle - 115 Volt - 2 W., Mfd. by United Clock Corp, Brooklyn, N.Y.,
Model No. 418.
ANY help you could give me would be thoroughly appreciated. All I've found so far is that most of the clocks made by United were built more like statues than this one was.
