The James Gillespie Estate Soldiers & Cast Iron Toys Auction
A grouping of four original cast iron banks is offered together, including a ca. 1875 H.L. Judd Mechanical Snappit Bank, a blue three-dial Kenton Radio Bank, a 1910-1934 A.C. Williams Colonial House, or House with Porch, bank with a red roof, and a Cornelius Bergbower Lincoln Log Cabin bank. The Kenton Radio Bank’s door opens and closes smoothly. The Lincoln Log Cabin bank is remarkably small but heavy for its size. The H.L. Judd Mechanical Snappit Bank measures approximately 3" W x 4" H; the Kenton Radio Bank measures approximately 4.5" L x 3.5" H; the A.C. Williams Colonial House measures approximately 4" W x 4.5" H; and the Lincoln Log Cabin bank measures approximately 3.75" W x 2.75" H. The overall condition ranges from good to excellent.
