"Middle Class Fantasies" Comic Book Novelty Wall Clock

This item is a contemporary novelty wall clock featuring the cover art from the underground comic book 'Middle Class Fantasies' by Neil Adams, originally published in the 1970s. The clock is constructed from a rectangular substrate, likely a rigid foam board or plastic composite, with the comic book graphics applied as a full-bleed print. The artwork depicts a red-headed woman in a blue gown sitting on a bed against a blue background, with the title 'MIDDLE CLASS FANTASIES' prominently displayed in stylized red and white lettering. A $1.00 price graphic is visible in the upper right corner, mimicking the aesthetics of vintage pulp or underground comics. The clock mechanism is centrally mounted, featuring silver-toned, tapered sword-style hour and minute hands and a thin straight second hand. The piece is secured with four decorative metal standoffs or bolts in each corner, suggesting a modern mounting style that creates a 'floating' effect on a wall. Despite the vintage graphic style, the construction and mounting hardware indicate it is a modern decorative accessory rather than an antique. Condition appears fair, with visible wear and creasing along the lower-left edge and corner, and some scuffing consistent with handling. The graphics retain good color saturation, and the overall craftsmanship is typical of 21st-century specialty pop-culture merchandise.
