This timepiece has a good rear label stating this clock was made for the Wm. Wrigley, Jr. and Co., of Chicago and Philadelphia of chewing gum fame. The refinished oak case is in very nice condition with an original tablet. The original painted dial is soiled in the center, but is quite nice for its age. The hands and tablet are original. The movement is die stamped by the maker. We did not find this model in the Waterbury catalog, and conclude that it was specifically made for Wrigley, for offer as a coupon premium (for either gum dealers or consumers). Also with interior Waterbury label (with some loss). A neat clock. Height 24 inches
