A production-made Hill Valley Telegraph newspaper cover headlined "Clock Tower Struck By Lightning" from the production of Robert Zemeckis' time travel adventure Back to the Future. The Hill Valley Preservation Society reprinted a Telegraph article on the clock tower in flyers they gave to Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) and Jennifer (Claudia Wells) in the town square.

Created by Earl Hays Press for the production, this black-and-white newspaper cover numbered "Vol XVII, No. 32" features the subheader "Clock Stopped at 10:04" next to a picture of the clock tower. Unrelated filler text is printed throughout. The cover exhibits pinholes, fold lines, and discolouration from use and age. Dimensions: 58 cm x 35 cm (22.75" x 13.75")

Estimate: £3,000 - 6,000 M
