Flipclockfans | Trying to Whiten an Historic Copal 227 Flip Clock @Flipclockfans | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This Copal 227 was purchased directly from Japan in extremely yellowed condition. We discovered that it was a specially "branded" clock intended to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Copal Corporation on May 21,1974. Here we try to save this clock for Flip Clock History.
