DOUBLE BUBBLE
HISTORY:
The
"Double Bubble" style clocks were produced in the 1950's and 1960's by
the Advertizing Products Company of Cincinnati, Ohio. In recent years
they have become the most desirable of the collectable clocks of that
era. Today many collectors of 50's memorabilia restrict their entire
collection of clocks to only Double Bubbles. Several collectors have
well over a hundred different logos, or graphics on these beautiful
clocks. The "Double Bubble" clock
has an inner dial which sweeps over the inner glass bubble and
featured advertizing, and the outer "crystal" or glass bubble usually
features the numbers of the clock. Both globes are luminated from the
rear with either two low wattage light bulbs or one florescent bulb.
They measure approximately 15 inches in diameter.
Recently,
these clocks have been redone with the original licensed artwork from
Wayne's Clocks. We are excited about not only issuing the designs that
were never made but also reproducing some original designs. In fact, all the parts of this clock are interchangeable
with the originals. You will not find a finer clock today.
