Your mom has good taste. I have an original Nelson swag leg desk from the 50's.

Good examples of the ball clock can be found often on e-bay. There was a like new sunburst that sold last week. Good luck finding someone interested in trading. You going to have to shell out cash.

wow Oldsmobile guys and george nelson clocks, very cool. My aunt has had one mounted on her wall since the 50s. Too bad her interior designer son gets first dibs on it, I too have seen them on ebay.

I was at a store in Texas the other day called "Home Goods" and they had new reproduction George Nelson mid-50s ball and star wall clocks for sale. Several varieties. They looked very well done and very close to the originals. These were of course quartz and they went for $29.99. I thought of buying one, but didn't know where I'd hang it.
