50s Vintage Cat's Paw Shoe Repair Light Up Advertising Clock Pre Double Bubble For Sale

---

14'' diameter Cat Tex clock made by Cincinnati Advertising Products. This is the same company that would later produce the famous "double bubble" style advertising clocks.

The clock is in excellent condition. There are two flakes on the edge of the front dome which I have pictured in close-up photos. These are not noticible when the clock is hanging. These are only on the front face of the dome. They were caused when someone (not me) tried to take the dome out of the metal ring without bending the retainer tabs far enough out of the way. Aside from these two small flakes there are no chips or cracks. All of the graphics are perfect.

I have taken the clock apart and carefully cleaned it inside and out. It has been completely and properly rewired and a new cord has been installed. The original motor was not working so I have replaced it with a new one. It was mounted to the original brass works which are still in fine shape. Incredibly the company that made the clock movement (synchron) is still in business and still making the same motor.

After cleaning the dome and ring I replaced all of the rubber pads that go under the retainer tabs to hold it in the ring.

The clock has a fresh set of 15 watt bulbs and is ready to hang up and enjoy.
