Antique 1885 Cast Iron Speaking Dog Money Bank - Original, Mechanical, Moveable:
$175.00

This fantastic antique is a cast iron Speaking Dog bank made in 1885 by the Shepard Hardware Company. It was designed by Peter Adams and Charles Shepard. The patent date is stamped on the bottom: October 20, 1885. It measures 7.5\" x 7.5\".
To operate the bank, depress the lever on the base near the dog, which causes the girl\'s right arm to move back, dropping the coin placed on the tray into the seat opening beside her. At the same time, the dog opens its mouth as if barking and wags its tail.
**Please note - The bank was repainted at some point in the past.
This unique piece would made a great addition to your antique collection!
