It operates with 2 dry batteries. A long cord is attached and can be used in the bed to see the time at night, by pushing a button on the end of the cord a lamp will light over the clock. It was advertised that it will alarm until you get up. The clock with the alarm feature, is running. Needs the battery in place to activate the alarm. Good nickel case, 12 1/2 inches wide, 8 inches high. This is the first one of these that I have seen with the original push cord attached. Ehrhardt No.1, page 123.
