| The picture below shows a larger view of this 1985 Woonsocket Rhode Island Fire Department Fireman Wood & Metal Award Trophy Retirement Clock. It is made of stained wood, metal, and some plastic, similar to a trophy award. It has a battery operated, or quartz Japanese clock with Roman numerals, with second, minute, and an hour hands. It has a metal Fireman figure or figurine in uniform and helmet with a fire hose. For reference, the man that had this clock was a Woonsocket, Rhode Island Fireman. He spent 36+ years in service as a Fireman. The brass plate mounted on the base reads as follows: PRIVATE WILLIAM J. TRUDEL, JR.

(+phone number) Over all the clock measures about 11-3/4'' x 6-1/4'' x 3-1/4''. It appears to be excellent condition as pictured. At the time of this writing, we did not have a AA battery on hand to try the clock. |
