Original Item: Only One Available. This is a wonderful WWII era clock, most likely used as a desktop display for a proud pilot of the Royal Canadian Air Force. The clock, although no longer functional, still makes for an excellent display item!

The history of the Royal Canadian Air Force begins in 1914, with the formation of the Canadian Aviation Corps (CAC) that was attached to the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. It consisted of one aircraft that was never called into service. In 1918, a wing of two Canadian squadrons called the Canadian Air Force (CAF) was formed in England and attached to the Royal Air Force, but it also would never see wartime service. Postwar, an air militia also known as the Canadian Air Force was formed in Canada in 1920. In 1924 the CAF was renamed the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) when it was granted the royal title by King George V. The RCAF existed as an independent service until 1968.

The clock has an integrated hook added to the bottom of the clock housing on the reverse giving it the ability to stand on its own. The clock itself measures 2 ½” x 2 ½” with the total wood housing measuring approximately 12 ½” x 5 ¼” and has a wonderful aged look to it.

There is no extensive damage present aside from the clock needing to be repaired. There is minor chipping present in the wood housing but nothing that is too noticeable.

A lovely clock ready to be displayed!
