VINTAGE KIT-CAT POODLE CLOCK (MODEL P1)Manufactured by California Clock Co. | San Juan Capistrano, CA (Circa 1964–1972)Condition: True New Old Stock (NOS) | 100% Untouched & Fully Functional💎 THE ULTIMATE COLLECTOR’S TIME CAPSULE 💎This un-jeweled Model P1 has spent over 50 years undisturbed inside its original factory box. It is not a rebuild, a \"marriage\" of mismatched parts, or a modern reproduction—it is a pristine piece of mid-century Americana preserved exactly as it left the assembly line.⏱️ ITEM CONDITION & FUNCTIONALITY

• The Movement: Features the highly coveted, factory-original International Register Co. (Chicago, IL) Model WB-2080 heavy-duty AC synchronous motor (4.5W / 120V).
• The Interior: Immaculate. The silver capsule housing and the black field coil magnet wrapper are completely clean and pristine, showing zero signs of previous service, tool marks, or degradation.
• The Performance: Bench-tested with extreme care. Runs flawlessly, keeps excellent time, and operates quietly with a smooth, silent animation sequence (eyes and tail roll fluidly).
• The Cord: The original cord remains soft and pliable. It features its deep original factory folds (\"box memory\").
• The Patina: The original white hands exhibit a uniform, beautiful vintage yellowing. This natural oxidation confirms their 100% original factory authenticity—never altered or swapped.
• Cosmetics (Body): The main body of the clock is flawless, displaying a glossy jet-black finish with absolutely no cracks, chips, or plastic fading.
• Cosmetics (Tail): The tail exhibits a couple of very minor cosmetic chips (clearly documented in the photos). This is a common characteristic of New Old Stock pieces, as the tails were packed loose inside the factory box and naturally vibrated against the cardboard during original transit or storage.

📦 FACTORY PACKAGING & PROVENANCE INCLUDED

• Original Box: Accompanied by its authentic, original factory box featuring the white factory \"BLACK\" sticker. The box shows minor, honest shelf wear from five decades of safe storage (see photos).
• Original Paperwork: Includes the incredibly rare, original pink buyer\'s registration card found inside the box. The card is perfectly preserved and features a handwritten \"blk\" factory/store code in ink on one side, offering magnificent historical provenance.
