Description

You are bidding on a Rare - Swihart 'Dixie Milk' Light-Up Clock that is working perfect. I purchased the clock a few years ago, and the clock did not keep time or light-up. I rebuilt the original movement, replaced the florescent light ballast, replaced the florescent bulb (pic 6) and replaced the
outside convex glass (pic 1)
. The original face is NOT being used on the clock.
Let me repeat this... THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL FACE
.
I was given the original face separately when I purchased the clock, but it has 2 large cracks and when the light is placed behind it, the face is very yellow (pics 9, 10 & 11). The clock has what appears to be a vinyl copy of the original face being used, and it looks good when lit or unlit (pics 1, 2 & 3). There is a small mark on the face next to the number 3 that can be seen when the clock is lit (pics 2, 3 & 8). The small mark is barely seen when the clock is not lit (pics 1 & 7). I would guess that there were 2 layers of vinyl used to make the face, and this was a cutout on the edge of the roll. The Swihart sticker is on the bottom of the clock (pic 4), and the clock DOES have the original back (pic 5).
I will send the original face along with the clock to the high bidder. This clock is using mostly original parts, except for what I have mentioned. I used the word RARE in the description, because the DIXIE is far and in between, and in today's world it may be considered something else.
