C. 1895 Bank of Education & Economy Cast Iron Mechanical Bank Toy with Paper Roll
View my other auctions for many more banks and other vintage and antique toys being listed. Scarce cast iron mechanical bank that is marked BANK OF EDUCATION & ECONOMY PATENTED APR-30-95. This bank is all cast iron with a nickel plated finish. This is a dime savings bank and you would place a dime in the slot at the top of the bank, turn the knob clockwise, and a paper slip with a question or quotation pops up! The dime falls into the glass window area and when full enough, the cast iron lever begins to rise and you can then push down on the lever to then slide open the trap underneath. Measures 3 5/8 tall. Made by Proctor Raymond Co. This bank is in all original condition and still works. There is some light wear to the nickel plating, and the scarce original paper roll of quotations still remains. I opened the bank and the roll is still quite full. Track Page Views With. Auctiva’s FREE Counter.
