Late 19th/early
20th century pocket watch trade sign. Most of these signs are
cast iron, but this version I'm fairly confident to say is cast
zinc. It's not nearly as heavy yet has survived well in weathered
condition. Completely untouched and original with tin faces in
wonderful condition considering so many get battered while in use.
The face of the clock on both sides shows honest wear and
weathering. The name Bunch is common in Pennsylvania and it's quite
possible the sign is from the greater Philadelphia area. Size: 24
inches tall with a 17 inch diameter face.
