BOY SCOUT CAMP Mechanical Bank CAST IRON J & E Stevens Co
Elaborately cast mechanical bank by J and E Stevens from the early part of the 20th century Bank depicts a teepee in a wooded setting with two scouts at the campfire, one of whom holds a Boy Scout Flag. Place a coin in the tree above the teepee and when the lever is pressed the scout raises the flag and the coin drops into the receptacle. Measures 9-1/2″ at longest point, about 5-3/4″ at tallest point Please see pictures for condition: Works as it should-flag raises, coin drops, spring is good Paint is as shown in pictures-I did NOT clean it to preserve the original paint/patina. I will leave that to the next owner! It has been “reattached”-not sure how long, if at all, the repair will last. Cover to hold coins in is missing. There is a “chuck” missing on the bottom on the side with the fire. Judging by the color and wear, it’s been broken quite a while… I try my best to represent items to the best of me knowledge.
