| Publisher Description: Cast metal coin banks have helped millions of people save money. They were often premiums given away by companies and banking institutions when a new account was opened. Over 1,000 color photos show the diversity of Banthrico coin banks, made in Chicago from 1931 until 1985. They resemble famous people, animals, trophies, vehicles, architecture, and more. For today's collector, there is information about the company, materials, 900 styles, advertising, sizes, and rarity. An index will help you find your favorites. Bankers, antique dealers, and toy and bank enthusiasts finally have a reliable reference to this fast-growing area of bank collecting. |
