Telechron 'Motif'
Title
Telechron 'Motif'
Description
Black plastic (Bakelite) wall clock produced from 1954-1956 with the model number 2HA49. The outer case is cut into to reveal its silver-toned face and off-white numbers. Each front corner is decorated with a gold ivy design that mirrors the gold second hand. The red dot at the top center of the dial is an "indicating device" that would have turned red and alerted its owner to a power outage. This example is missing a large ring that would have sat on top of the clock like an upside-down door knocker.
