DEAR RETRO HOUSEWIFE

The Secret Of the Mantle Clock, 2007-06-19

Dear Retro Housewife,

I just came across your site while trying to find a way to determine if a mantle clock that my grandmother had was possibly purchased with Blue Chip or Green stamps. I would love to find one as it is very sentimental to me. As I recall (in the early sixties), it was maybe 12 inches or so high, brown and the highlight was that it had a "fireplace" on it in which the "fire" moved. I've kept my eyes out looking for one but just never thought to check online. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thank you.

    Dear Lisa,

    This is indeed a challange! I will see what I can do!

    So, I found this clock, which seems to fit your description, except that it is more gold than brown. It is made by the United Clock Company, and it is for sale on ebay. Here is a link to it: Vintage United Fireplace Mantel Clock. Please let me know if this is your clock!
