face. i got it from a garage sale for 3 pounds a few years ago. the face is about 18 inch diameter and the total diameter including the bevelled frame edge is about 24 inches. its made of some sort of metal, the face is white with embossed black roman numerals on it. i absolutely love this useless timekeeper, but i wondered if it could be worth anything, maybe an old station clock? and is there an online site i could do some research on it? im hoping a clockologist will help! if its worth it i would love to refurbish it properly and get a proper mechanism in it.
If you e-mail a photo of the clock to Ian Lyman, he might be able to tell you something about it (and, of course, give you an idea of the cost of restoring it): http://www.railwayclocks.com/
