I can post more pictures if needed, but does anyone know anything about this clock? I can't find another like it; it's 7 inches tall by 5.25 inches wide.
Thanks!

The image is from 1905 advertising pieces. Lillian Nordica was an opera singer and early Coca-Cola girl. This looks similar to the upper portion of the '05 calendar. But it's not exactly the same. And I've never seen anything like it with a clock inserted. Is the surface paper or is it covered with celluloid (plastic coating)? A clearer picture of the image would help determine if it's a color copy vs. printed. And a picture of the back side will probably help the experts. Somebody will know for sure. There are a lot of Coca-Cola fantasy pieces out there. This is the place to find out.
Sounds like it could be a potential rare find. Awesome.
TGBWC & Daddy_Nobucks, thank you for the information! I work at a museum, this was a donation (along with many other Coca-Cola related items) that I really can't find much information about. It is celluloid. It is currently under glass so when we open the case back up (sometime within the next four weeks or so I think) I will get a few more pictures.
