I’d hang it our early 40’s kitchen, above the doorway to the basement. We live in Springwells Park, Dearborn, MI the first non-grid subdivision in the United States! Our neighborhood was developed by Edsel Ford in the late 1930’s and is based on his love of WIlliamsburg and Early American design. Our home was built in 1941.

I would hang him in our little vintage trailer which we have renovated.
Jennifer says
This will go in the “guest room” at our mid-century fishing cottage! I’ll start clearing a spot now!

I have a space over a doorway in my recently refreshed retro kitchen yearning for the Kit Kat Klock. No matter what door you walk through into the kitchen you would be greeted by Kit Kat. My grandmother had one in her kitchen and I just loved watching Kit Kat tick the time away. It must have been what inspired our family to have tuxedo kittys for our family pets.

my mother pretty much did all the decorating in our house but I remember my daddy having a kit kat clock that was all his! We were all fascinated by it! Wish we still had it!
Ronda says
Wow, what a cool clock! What a neat company to be in business since 1932. This would look great in my living room over the TV. I have loved these clocks for years.
Betsy Thornton says
It would look great in my kitchen when we bring it back to it’s original 1959 life! Slowly acquiring items now. Thank you for such an awesome website to get inspiration!
Brenda says
I remember being mesmerized by my Mom’s Kit-Cat clock back in the mid 1950s, watching the eyes and tail moving back and forth in time with the tick-tock, tick-tock… I would love to hang one in my 1950s kitchen, bringing back those lovely childhood memories of my family, especially my Mom, and those cherished times not forgotten.
Retro Renovation brings this Joy back to me again and again. Thank you!

I think there are many of us who greatly adore this site because of the fond memories it kindles within us. Each time I acquire some “new”old treasure, my Mom says, “Oh, I used to have one of those.” Then I say, “yeah, that’s why I wanted it”. She gets the warm fuzzy memories from seeing my goodies and remembering the fun we had when I was a child. She loved my Frigidaire Flair stove so much we had to get her one. 😉 Pam and Kate sure know how to warm our souls.
Maisean says
I would hang him in my kitchen. I’ve wanted one ever since I was 8 and saw one on Doc Brown’s wall in Back to the Future.
John says
Refreshing our 1953 kitchen (complete with the light bar sink) and this will be the cherry on top!
