ORIGINAL WOODEN BANK BOX FOR THE CLOWN GLOBE BANK.

ORIGINAL WOODEN BANK BOX FOR THE CLOWN GLOBE BANK. In most cases the wooden boxes that were made to hold the mechanical banks are much rarer to find than the banks themselves.

Box is also imprinted “No. 1332, Funny Clown Bank, Manufactured by the J&E Stevens Co., Cromwell Connecticut” and had directions on how to operate the bank. SIZE: 9-1/4″ h. CONDITION: From age box shows discoloration of wood, some slight staining, some wear to the lettering on front of box, and some loss of wood where top edge of box slides together. 1-11117 (900-1,100)
