Bidspirit auction | Merry Go Round Iron Bank

Merry Go Round Iron Bank - Kyser & Rex Philadelphia, PA - 1889. A very scarce and charming bank. It is probably based upon the Dentzel Carousel that was at Fairmont Park, Philadelphia, in the late 19th Century. Place a coin in the aperture and turn the crank, the carousel goes around, bells chime and your coin is deposited.
