GENUINE "Dinah" mechanical bank or "Money Box"

She was made by the PROLIFIC British Cast Iron Bank & Money Box makers John Harper & Company

AGE = Circa 1920's

She was UNIQUE in being a FEMALE bank, while all others were Black MEN or Black BOYS (Am I still allowed to call them "Boys" ?)

This ORIGINAL concept was invented & PROTECTED with a Registered Design Number in 1911

This DESPITE Harper & Co.'s OWN criminal breach of Patent on the Jolly N****R Bank design

That they had STOLEN from the J.& E. STEVENS Company in USA who had legally inherited the Copyright from the Shepard hardware Co original INVENTORS of mechanical coin banks

This is the SECOND (2nd) MODEL with a 2-piece Pressed STEEL arm, the earlier examples were fitted with a 2-piece CAST IRON arm Circa 1911

NO missing parts or bolts

NO DAMAGE besides minor wear to her 100% ORIGINAL and un-retouched paintwork

This "Dinah" is in 100% PERFECT WORKING ORDER

Retains original "Made in England" marked base-plate

This bank has a realistic reserve based on hr SUPERB CONDITION (One of the BEST 2nd Patt "Dinah" that I have EVER owned or offered for sale)........But there IS a "BIN" price if you find the auction process tedious :-)
