Antique 19thC Kyser & Rex Cast Iron Monkey Cat & Dog Organ Mechanical Bank
On back is PAT JUNE. Measuring 7 1/2″ tall by 5 1/4″ wide and 4 deep, this 19th century Cast Iron Mechanical Bank was made by Kyser & Rex. It is called the “Organ Bank” and depicts a Monkey, a cat and a dog, sitting on top of an Organ. Weight is 3 lb. The monkey has his hat in one hand and a paddle in the other. When the handle on the side is turned, a bell rings and the monkey drops a coin from the paddle into the slot in front of him. This bank is in good working condition. The monkey lifts and lowers his hat and the arm with the coin lowers to deposit the coin. The cat & dog revolve and the bell rings. The handle turns easily. There is some wear to the original paint. There has been a welded repair to the top of the bank that fixed a crack from the slot to the back. The result is visible in the photo. The door on the bottom was missing when we acquired the bank and the door has been professionally reproduced so that it is now a fully functioning door. I will provide more photos upon request.
