GENERAL BUTLER STILL BANK.

GENERAL BUTLER STILL BANK. Modeled after the inept Civil War general and his alleged plundering of southern estates to line his own pockets, particularly in the city of New Orleans, this bank portrays a caricature of Butler’s face with a frog body. Typically toys replicated the social economic and political climate of the day. Such is the case with this bank. A rare and difficult bank to find, this bank is in original as-found condition including its trap. SIZE: 6-1/2″ h. CONDITION: Overall fair to good with many years of dust and dirt that accumulated on the paint. A good cleaning would certainly enhance the color and luster of this bank. 1-12274 (600-1,000)

Auction: Advertising, Toy & Doll - Fall 2012

Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.
