Cool clock, case front is painted metal, anyone have one?

I don't have a Country Club, but I do have  a Logan. I believe the Logan was the postwar version of the Country Club, since both have basically the same case.

I also have a LoganLogans are about a dime a dozen.  Most are in poor condition, and they have paper dials.  Mine is from 1951, I think and in good condition.  The Country Club on ebay is severely overpriced.  I wouldn't expect to pay more than $20.

There is a 7H141 Airlux in Jimmy Stewart's bedroom in the later part of Strategic Air Command (1955).  It shows up in two or three scenes.

You don't often see the backside of our clock in the movies. . I thought it interesting that the clock faced the guests and towards the chair
