Telechron “telalarm Jr” Red-dot Electric Alarm Clock

Warren Telechron “Telalarm Jr” Red-Dot Electric Alarm Clock 7H135, Tan Dial Version, Running TELALARM JR, Model #7H135, made by Warren Telechron Co. (one of several company name variations), Ashland, Mass. circa post-WWII, estimate 1945 - 1950. One of two versions of the TELALARM JR with different dial colors being listed. Small ivory colored plastic case housing the “Red Dot” Warren Telechron electric motor. The case material was also referred to as “Lustrol”. (Some versions of the case apparently glowed in the dark but there is no indication that this one does or once did.) The painted metal dial features stylized Arabic numerals on a TAN or BEIGE colored background. The hour and minute hands appear to have been luminous; the second hand is brass colored. Includes the original six foot cord and plug. Clock Data (rear of case): Volts 100/125 CYC 60 W. 2 Motor information: Rotor: H3 HNK 3.6 RPM 60 C M2275 345 Dimensions (approx.): Width: 4-5/8” side to side Height: 3-3/4” top to bottom Depth: 2-1/2” front to back including knobs on back Weight: 1 lb. 5 oz. ( not packaged for shipping ) Condition: USED, Good Looking and Good Running Condition. Runs very well, quiet and maintains correct time. The plastic housing is very good for the age and material with a small 1/4” hairline crack in the upper right front corner and small discolored spot on the right side front edge, and a few scattered nicks, scratches, and chips over other surfaces. The brown painted bezel has a few small nicks in the paint. The dial and numerals are very good. The hour and minute hands show discoloration, a small amount of paint loss, and are probably no longer luminous. The alarm set time hand and the second hand are in good original condition. The motor rotor has had a small hole drilled in the housing most likely to service the lubricant inside. This is definitely not a recommended practice but in this case it does not seem to have harmed the rotor. Also, one of the original aluminum stand-offs for supporting the motor has been replaced by a plastic spacer which does not affect the motor operation. The original electrical cord is a little stiff but has no cracks and includes the original two-prong plug. No warranty or guarantee as to the continued performance of this timepiece. Please check the photos carefully as an important part of the description and for the best measure of condition.
