Leroy,

Email your address. I'll send a tracing of the clock with measurements.

Leroy:



20 1/2 in. from noxe to tip of bottom wing, 5 3/4 in. high and 1 1/2

inches thick. That is from an original clock out of a 1982.



The numberals are: Blue Bird Emblem for 12 o'c;clock, W for 11, A

for 10 and so forth until you spell out Wanderlodge. It looks to me

if that is backwards but that is the way that they did it. Any other

questions mine is in the room with me.

Leroy:

The letters are 5/16 in. and are black transfer decals. The letter
look to be "Arial" font. Don't hesitate to ask if you need anything
else.
