Tom...this is an old wood GE Alarm Clock that my uncle used. Keeps perfect silent time, I can't seem to part ways with it. I save it from the trash when I was just a kid as my Grandmother said it didn't work, I just put a new cord it many years ago....Doug

Most of those old Telechron alarm wood housings were a routed out wood block.  All the better to withstand the rigors of being dropped or thrown against a wall.   ;D
