@@CuriousMarc I found the factual reason: it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribuzione_di_energia_elettrica Atthe end of the article there is a list of historic voltages in Italy. It was street illumination in the end.
I have a Boselli Icon 30 flip clock that's driven with 24V impulses of alternating polarity. Or was, because the coil and the fork-like iron core that goes with it are sadly missing. I was wondering if these 'Italians' share the same Lavet-type motor? I need some specs as to the resistance of the coil and the wire gauge so that I can make my own replacement part (I suppose I can strip the core part from an old transformer). Can you help me out?

Those tubes illuminate it perfectly, what a very neat piece of engineering.
An amazing piece of design and technology! Fabulous.
I have just acquired this wonderful clock. I can't seem to remove the back of it. Is there a latch? I can't see one. Thanks for your help.
Not Street lights! Railways use 160 V so I think it was on a train station.
That would explain it! Thanks for the tip.

How old?
Made in 1957.
62 years old!!! Bravo!!! :)
Also at when clock hits 25:00 hours it should roll over to 1:00 hours
No brasil tem desses relogio a onde posso encotra deles
