Bidspirit auction | Zoo - Cast Iron Mechanical

Zoo - Cast Iron Mechanical Bank - Made by Kyser & Rex Company. Frankford, Pa. - Circa Late 1880's. The Zoo Bank is the smallest mechanical bank ever created, and yet, it is still full of great wonder. It brims with vivid color and it deploys dynamic action, everything you expect from a well designed toy bank. Pennies placed in the coin retainer at the top are deposited when you press the monkey's face. The window shutters spring open to reveal a lion and a bear behind them. Condition: Near Mint Condition.
