Rare J & E Stevens " Lion Hunter " Antique Cast Iron Mechanical Bank




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:1644747
Original Description:
J & E Stevens "Lion Hunter" Cast Iron Mechanical BankHere is one of the more sought after, original cast iron Mechanical Banks - due to its scarcity and great subject matter. Manufactured by J. & E. Stevens, this is called the "Lion Hunter" Mechanical Bank. From looking online I believe it is from the early 1900s.
Please see all the photos for the condition. It measures approximately just less than 11" long and about 7.25" tall at the highest point. The meachanism does not w...ork properly. It will be shipped in non working order and will need some repair to work properly. I did not want to open the bank up and try to fix it in fear of doing more harm than good. I am not familiar w this bank so I dont know if it is an easy fix or not. As you can see, the bottom is missing the cap to keep the coins from falling out. Again, please see all the photos for the condition and contact me with any questions. Good luck!
I received a message from another Ebayer who said, there is some iron broken off & missing from the front left side of the barrel of the gun. Also, there is a piece of iron broken off & missing from the end tip of the interior activating rod. The tip of the activating rod should be balanced in the hole at the far left end section of the bank. The broken activating rod prevents the bank from operating. This is from someone else that knows more than I do about the bank. Thanks!
