ORIGINAL CAST IRON MECHANICAL ORGAN BANK CAT DOG MONKEY 1882 BY KYSER & REX - $450 - (St. Johnsbury, VT)
This is a cool item I recently picked up at an estate sale. Marked "Patented June 11, 1882". Paint in fine condition. Comes WITH KEY! Measurements: 7.5" tall, 5 1/2" wide with crank, 3 1/2" deep. The internal catch on the monkeys arm seems to be worn so it doesn't stay up to hold the coin. I'm afraid to take it apart myself to try to repair it. I'm not any kind of expert on these mechanical banks. Plays dual chimes when turning crank and the cat and dog spin around to the music. See pics. and ask questions. I ALWAYS COMBINE SHIPMENT ORDERS IF YOU SEE SOMETHING ELSE YOU LIKE IN MY OTHER AUCTIONS. Payment and Shipping Instructions: Immediate shipment upon payment Pay Pal, Bank Check or MO. Other payments must clear prior to shipping. Buyer to pay $12 for shipping in US. No reserve
