Description
This is a Kyser & Rex cast iron “Lion and Two Monkeys” mechanical bank. This is a working mechanical bank. It operates by placing a coin in the monkey’s hand and pressing the lever at the base of the tree. When the lever is pressed, the monkey throws the coin at the lion, who simultaneously opens his mouth to catch it. While the lion catches and “eats” the coin, the baby monkey jumps onto the mother monkey’s back. The trap door is present, though no key is included. The paint is all original, bright, and in great condition. The eyes are the original glass eyes. This bank measures approximately 10? L x 9.25? W.
Condition: GOOD
