Replica of OLD MR BOSTON whiskey bottle with 8-day clock by Gilbert Clock Co.

Replica of OLD MR BOSTON whiskey bottle with 8-day clock by Gilbert Clock Co. Well, whataya know....an OLD MR BOSTON whiskey advertising clock!!! These scarce clocks incorporate a very sturdy, well-running Gilbert Clock Company eight-day movement and we've found that they run flawlessly. I'm told that these clocks were distributed free to bars by the distiller of Old Mr. Boston whiskey--to be displayed on the back bar where boozers sitting at the bar could watch the clock so they wouldn't get home so late that their wives had locked them out!! The Gilbert Clock Company made three sizes of this interesting clock and this was the largest of the trio. It has a heavy steel case that in this instance, has been repainted by a former owner. This is a clock that will create a light-hearted atmosphere in your game room, kitchen or den. BUT, if you're looking for some liquid refreshment, you won't find it inside this heavy steel bottle--just brass clock gears in an eight-day Gilbert mechanism!! Height: 22 in. (55.88 cm) Depth: 5 in. (12.70 cm) Width: 10 in. (25.40 cm) Weight: 15
