Vintage 1960s 'Mercedes' wooden, colourfully hand painted nursery clock depicting Snow White and two dwarves. The mechanism is brass and comes with the original pendulums and key. 'Mercedes' was the trademark of 'Gebrüder Hauser' usually shortened to 'Geba Hauser' (as on this mechanism) and located in Weigheim, near Villingen in then West Germany. The clock face is marked 'Germany'. The wooden facade is 21.5cm high and 14.5cm at its widest point. The clock face is 4cm diameter. In very good condition. The mechanism is fully working with a reassuring tick and appears to keep time. There is a very small (2mm x 3mm) piece missing on the extreme lower right of the facade, and a couple of very light scratches in the paintwork, otherwise cosmetically very clean.
