Default 1950's Ingram Clock with Logo

I watched this auction on Ebay that has now ended. I did not bid on it, but if it was real, it would be a nice find. What do you guys think?

It is item number: 234324774860 and went for over $300. Supposed to be from the 1950s and manufactured by Ingram.

Here are some pictures:

Here are some pictures:
Was S&W using the red/white/blue gun design in the 1950's? I thought that was a more recent marketing design.

Bruce, I had the same thought. I think the clock is real, however the time estimate is way to early and I think a search of S&W Accessory catalogs, circa, 1970s-90s, etc, will show that clock. Ed

What gets me on the authenticity is the lack of a Lazy Ampersand and the newer graphics design.
