Chris,
Hi. When you are done with your posting content, click on "Attachments and other options", then drag the picture that you want to post from wherever you have it stored on your computer. Pretty simple.... Good Luck!

This clock is made for the rear seat of a closed car.  It mounts either in the wood trim behind the driver's seat or with a bezel in the upholstery itself.  My Pierce-Arrow (1936) has one just like it except it says Pierce-Arrow

Chris,
I suggest you do a LOT more research on what that clock fits before you start asking value. Also, be advised that clock was worth more 40 years ago than it is now. Why?? Because that's when those cars were being restored. HTH, Bob

Yes thank you thats why I have posted it here . Trying to find out more info on it but thank you for the advice . If all cars that had this clock are already restored and all the clocks are accounted for then the clock would be worthless I guess . But thats why i figured I would ask the Cadillac professionals

The Pierce Arrow one I had sold at Hershey for $200, just a few years ago.  I am sure there were more Cadillacs that used these than Pierce Arrows
