Post subject: J. Oswald Rolling Eyes Clock
I am trying to locate a J. Oswald clock that has rolling eyes for the hour and minutes. My father was stationed in Germany and brought one back for me as a young child. I had the clock until my mid 40's and during one of my moves it was stolen. I would love to find another one. If anyone has an idea where I might locate one or has some for sale please let me know.
This is a little information about the clocks:
Rolling eye clocks - first patented in 1926 by the J. Oswald Company of Germany with early models carved of wood and cast from metal after World War II.
The dials are represented as the eyes separating the hours on the left and minutes to the right. This collection of cross-eyed genies, skulls, monkeys, gnomes, owls, and dogs (LOTS of dogs) are an interesting cast of antique novelty clocks
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
