General Electric Telechron Model R-150 electric clock

Easily the prettiest Telechron I own. Picked up at a thrift shop in Folsom, California. Originally it was going to be a parts donor for a similar one that my father has, but they turned out to have completely different chiming mechanisms. My father ended up fixing both. He kept his and I got this one.

I found this in Jim Linz's Electrifying Time: Telechron and G.E. Clocks: 1925-1955. No name for this clock, unfortunately.

Circa: 1930 (from a GE advertisement)

Acquired: 2017 from a thrift shop. ($10)

Current condition: Looks, runs and sounds great.
