Manufacturer: Shepard Hardware Co.,Buffalo NY
ANTIQUE SPEAKING DOG MECHANICAL BANK
Shepard Hardware Co.,Buffalo NY. "Speaking Dog" Mechanical Bank. 1885. Painted cast iron.
Peter Adams and Charles Shepard Bank. The bank is in her original condition with no restoration.
To operate the bank, depress the lever on the base near the dog, which makes the girl's right arm to move back, dropping the coin placed on the small tray into the seat opening beside her. The dog opens its mouth as if barking and wags its tail. The bank works great.
I do not have a key to open her up. There is some normal paint loss, but otherwise, a nice bank.
It is 7 1/2 inches tall x 7 inches high and is marked with a patent date of July 14, 1885 on the bottom.
