flip clock
Cards show time
A flip clock is a timepiece that displays the time on hinged cards or panels that rotate downward as minutes and hours change, each flip revealing the next number.
Popular from the 1960s through the 1980s, flip clocks are now largely decorative or nostalgic items: The flip clock on his nightstand clicked softly at midnight.
