Here is the truly iconic “Santa Claus” cast iron mechanical bank offered in time for the holidays. Produced by the Shepard Hardware Co. In Buffalo New York and patented on 10/15/1889 this example is in wonderful all original condition. There are no cracks and no repaint and the colors are bright and rich with wear consistent with over 120 years of use. Nice action too: place a coin in Santa’s hand, push the lever by his foot and he drops the coin into the chimney. The bank works perfectly and even retains the original coin trap. A far better than average Santa bank to add to your collection. Please study the photos and ask any questions you may have, I will try to answer promptly. Thank you for looking and please also check out the other original mechanical banks I have listed and will continue to list for several weeks to come.
