What a neat old cast iron mechanical bank that actually still works. The magician is pretty clever and can make a coin disappear in front of your very own eyes. One minute you see the coin and the next you\'re wondering where it could have gone. As you can see in the photos, there is a hole on the top of the table and when you touch his head or press down on the spring on the side, he picks up his hat to place on his head and while you\'re looking at that, you hear a clanging sound and the next thing, your money is gone! I know there is at least 6 cents in there, but sorry to say, there is no key.On the back of the bank it says Reproduced From the Original In Collection of the Book of Knowledge. As I look at the close up photos I see some dust... will be sure he is nice and clean when you get him so he is all ready to fool you with his tricks. He measures 7 1/2\" tall, 6 1/2\" wide at base and 3 1/2\" deep. He weighs about 5 lbs. so I better not let him take any more money.
