Alarm clocks

They were nearly always brass! Yeah, I remember those, used to have one as a child and boy were they loud! Certainly ideal if you had problems getting up in the morning, as I did with getting up for school. You can still buy them! My cousin used to have a Mickey Mouse one, the hands on the clock were mickey's hands. I couldn't have one now and much prefer my clock radio it's gentler on the ears!

Yes I have one :) I like old things and I collect some antiques, it's working and i like to use it :)

I own a couple of those old clocks with the bells on the top, but they haven't worked in years! I really need to clean out my closets and get rid of some of these iems ... LOL!

Heck no those things scare teh crap out of me!

I have alarm clocks but not those bells on the top! Goodness me who even invented those?? LOL It's sooooooo loud it can even break your eardrums! RRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG - Lyn

I have one but out of function. I never use alarm clock.
