Vintage Tele-Vision Lamp Clock - No. 700 P1 Photo Ident - W.A. Tony Boyle - Mine Workers Union
$525.00
Offered is a vintage, 1950s Numechron novelty clock-lamp by Pennwood of Pittsburgh, PA. This is a great example of one of these models with the photo, and features a photo of William Anthony “Tough Tony” Boyle, the president of the United Mine Workers of America union from 1963-1972.
Ultimately, Boyle was convicted of 1974 on charges of conspiracy to commit murder. He was sentenced to three life sentences, and died while incarcerated in 1985.
Condition: The clock is in great overall condition. There are a couple scuffs on the outer (brown) part of the cabinet, but no cracks or chips. The front, and the clear back (and original back over) are virtually perfect. Everything works as expected. The original box is also included.
Measures about 5-1/2 inches wide, 3-1/2 inches deep, and 5 inches high.
