Super Rare Vintage 1956 ‘Vitality Dog Food’ Allied Pluto Animated Clock with its' original box.Beautiful condition with no scratches or cracks and works perfectly.
This is only the third recorded sale of the Vitality dog food premium Pluto clock with the Vitality Company’s logo on the face of the clock that I have found.
I contacted many auction houses, including Hake’s, who stated that they sold one in 2013 that didn’t work or have the box and their prior sale of this clock was in 1966.
The box shows wear and 2 corners of the cover have been taped very carefully on the inside and look good.
How you can tell that it’s the Vitality Dog Food box is on one side of the cover the pictures of Pluto are in black and white.
On the regular Allied Pluto clocks the entire cover is colored.
The box is complete with its cardboard clock holding insert as well as its warranty card dated October 15, 1956.
Made in the 1950s by Allied Mfg. Company, Seattle Washington. The eyes and tongue go up and down and the dog bone hands glow in the dark. It’s complete with the plastic collar which easily comes off and is usually missing, along with the original cord. It was tested, runs great and keeps good time
Please ask any questions prior to bidding and thanks for looking.
