5557586 - Unitary clock and picture frame

A unitary clock and picture frame. The clock and the area for receiving the picture occupy the same space within the frame. The clock movement housing is located between a transparent front panel and a rear panel of the frame. A drive stem assembly for receiving hand members extends outwardly from the movement housing through an opening in the transparent front panel, and hand members are attached to the outer portion of the drive stem assembly. Non-numeric hour indicia forming a clock face are located on said transparent front panel and have a configuration such that they continue to constitute a readable clock face when the transparent front panel is either rotated, reversed, or both rotated and reversed, thereby permitting the clock face to be located at any one of several predetermined locations depending upon its relationship to a picture to be inserted into the frame.
