The picture below shows larger front and back views of the (4) Different Early Cracker Jack Pop Corn Confection Miniature Pot Metal Toy Prize Pocket Watches & Clocks in this lot. The prizes are not dated but they are believed to be from the 1910s to the 1930s. Included here (left to right) are the following:

Coo Coo Clock house with window, and gold colored finish. The time is 12:40.

Next there is a Pocket Watch. It has no finish as it was made. There is a fancy scrollwork design with a shield on the back. The time is: 9:28.

The third one is only the top clock section on a mantle clock. It would still serve well as a clock in a doll house. It has an Angel with wings above the clock, and a fancy design on the back. The time, in Roman numerals, is: 1:29.

The final prize here is a smaller pocketwatch. The time, in Roman numerals, is: 11:10

Many of the early pot metal or lead prizes were manufactured by Dowst (Samuel Dowst), or the Tootsietoy Company of Chicago, Illinois, but there were other companies in the United States, and including ones from Japan and Germany prior to World War II as well. Some of these type prizes were made specifically for Cracker Jack, while others were made as small novelties, bought in volume, and used as prizes by The Cracker Jack Company. Pot metal or lead prizes were some of the earliest prizes that were used in Cracker Jack boxes from the 1910s to the late 1940s. Many of these type prizes or novelties were also sold out of old Johnson Smith & Company catalog as well as some other early novelty catalogs, also used in fortune telling sets, and some were also sold and used as board game parts. Many of these can be found factory painted, inked, or with no finish at all.

All four of these for one price! To judge the sizes, the larger pocket watch here measures about 7/8'' x 1-1/8''. These appear to be in excellent to mint conditionas pictured, except for the third one which is the clock face part of a mantle clock as mentioned above.
