Dale Earnhardt Goodyear Eagle Commemorative Wall Clock Appraisal

Dale Earnhardt Goodyear Eagle Commemorative Wall Clock

This is a decorative wall clock designed to resemble a Goodyear Eagle racing tire, a prominent brand in NASCAR. The clock features a black rubberized outer 'tire' frame with 'GOODYEAR' and '#1' printed in bold yellow lettering on the top, and 'EAGLE' on the bottom. The center face of the clock displays a circular portrait of legendary NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Sr. Earnhardt is wearing his iconic 'GM Goodwrench' racing suit and sunglasses. The item appears to be made of molded plastic and rubber materials to simulate a real racing tire on a slightly reduced scale. Notable features include the detailed graphics on the interior face and the recognizable yellow tire lettering. Regarding condition, the item shows significant signs of wear and environmental exposure. There is visible white scuffing and residue along the bottom edge of the tire frame, and the surface appears dusty and uncared for, likely stored in a garage or workshop setting. The clarity of the watch face seems intact, though there is general grime buildup across the unit. This piece likely dates from the late 1990s to the early 2000s, coinciding with the peak of Earnhardt's career and the subsequent memorial memorabilia period following 2001. It represents a mass-produced piece of sports fan memorabilia intended for display in 'man caves' or themed automotive spaces.
