Very Rare 1927 Arcade Gmc Green Cab Co. Cast Iron Bank Pristine
Offered for sale is a beautiful example of the very scarce 1927 GMC Pittsburgh taxicab with flat roof. Cast iron bank, manufactured by the Arcade Toy Co. Printed on each front door is “Green Cab Co, ” which I assume was an actual entity operating at that time. Everything appears original, from the nickel plated driver, to the Arcade sticker, to the spare tire, to the rear license plate. The paint is in pristine condition, as is the nickel plating, and I’ve no reason to believe that there has been any work done to it; I can find no evidence of repairs from breaks, cracks, chips or other damage to the piece, either. It measures 8 1/8 long x 3 5. And as can be seen from the photos, it displays wonderfully. It is missing the coin trap that would have fitted into the circular opening on the bottom of the car. Please zoom in on the pictures as they are an integral part of the description, and don’t miss this opportunity to own this classic and extremely difficult to find bank. Thanks for looking, and good luck if you decide to offer! The item “VERY RARE 1927 ARCADE GMC GREEN CAB CO. CAST IRON BANK PRISTINE” is in sale since Monday, February 19, 2018.
