Oklahoma celebrated its centennial in 2007, and many cities and even companies purchased these beautiful clocks to observe the hundredth anniversary of statehood. In some cases, bells, chimes, or even bell towers were placed in celebration. The Oklahoma Centennial Clock & Bell Project has a website (see below) but it could use an update. Tishomingo appears on a map there, with a note that those shown have been installed or are under construction as of May 10th, 2007. Tishomingo does not appear on the completed projects list.
The clock is black with two white faces with black Roman numerals and hands. Atop the clock, on both sides, is "Est. 1856 Tishomingo" in gold, and on the faces it says "Oklahoma Centennial 1907 - 2007" in black lettering. Gold trim adorns the clock, primarily around the perimeter of its two faces.
