For more than a dozen years, JEBCO Clocks has been the leader in collector grade racing clocks. Much of that success was built on the brand's staple-a limited edition 11" x 23" wooden timepiece with high-quality graphics and a lustrous Jebcote finish. But as more manufacturers have entered the NASCAR clock market, JEBCO has kept pace with a more diverse product line. First came its series of round clocks and thermometers that hit the market in late 2003. Then, last season, the company added its highly-acclaimed Reflection Collection-an ensemble of mirrored driver plaques-along with an ensemble of 5" x 11" desk/wall clocks. JEBCO has raised the bar once again in 2005, this time with two new series: a midsize 11" x 14" wall clock and an 11" x 23" combination clock and cork board. Each cork board clock is decorated in the team colors and features high-impact graphics that display the driver's replica signature and car graphic on the face. A convenient corkboard is featured below the clock for posting messages and hanging keys or other items. Already being featured in the corkboard series are Dale Earnhardt, Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, Tony Stewart and Rusty Wallace. "We developed the cork board clock as a way to increase functionality," said John Cole, president of JEBCO. "Not only can fans celebrate their favorite driver with a high quality JEBCO Clock, they can also post notes, hang keys, display photos, and a variety of other things."  |  | STORE | |

The uniquely designed new medium-sized clock line features a face that is divided in half diagonally. The upper left half displays a black-and-white image of the driver. The lower right half displays a full color image of the driver's race car. Also displayed is are the car number and driver's replica signature. Four drivers are now available in this series: Dale Earnhardt, Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, and Rusty Wallace. "Our new Medium clock was developed to offer race fans a high quality wood JEBCO Clock at a more popular price," Cole notes. The clock completes the clock product line. Fans now can chose from our desk clocks, the "Oval Design" line of molded clocks and thermometers, the new medium wooden clock, our recent decorative mirrorized "Reflection Collection" line, and Individually Numbered Limited Edition Collectible JEBCO Clocks." Another new piece from JEBCO is the Dale Earnhardt Jr. "Tach" Clock. This round 11" timepiece resembles a tachometer. Like all JEBCO clocks, it features a quality quartz movement for accurate time keeping. The numbered face of this timepiece is protected by a Jebcote high-gloss finish, and displays an image of the driver, his replica signature and primary sponsor logo in the center. Of course, JEBCO's original 11" x 23" clock is still its standard bearer. Three new clocks have already been unveiled for 2005: a Jeff Gordon Three-time Daytona 500 winner piece, a Rusty Wallace "Last Call" edition, and a Dale Earnhardt Jr. Born on Date edition. |
