Original Description:

Rare 1873 Patent Cast Iron J & E Stevens
TAMMANY MECHANICAL BANK Great New York City Collectible With Bobble Head     
From a Connecticut Estate Auction comes this Rare 1873 Patent Cast Iron TAMMANY MECHANICAL BANK made by J & E Stevens. Weighing about 2 ¼ pounds, this is a great New York City collectible as it depicts New York City Mayor Jimmy Walker who lost his office as a result of taking bribes, known as the Tammany Hall Scandal. Put a ...coin in his hand and push the hand and the coin goes into his jacked pocket and his head bobbles.
    This appears to be all original including the paint and, as these things normally do, comes with a number of coins already deposited. There is a tiny stable crack to the left bottom of the screw in the above photo.  Comfortably seated in his chair, the mayor is 5 3/4” tall, 4 1/4” front-to-back and about 3 3/4” wide. A prior owner put a tag on the bottom regarding how to retrieve the coins and I've left that there. As shown, the back of his chair shows the patent date. I recently purchased a small collection of Black Americana and other banks and will be listing those in the coming weeks. Please watch my listings both for those and what I hope is an interesting and eclectic selection of other vintage and antique items.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: I send virtually all international packages fully insured and the insured amount has to be the same as the declared value, so please do not ask me to indicate either a lower value or that your item is a gift.
Import duties, taxes, and charges are the responsibility of the buyer and are not included in the item price or shipping cost. If this is a concern for you, please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.
If an international item sells for $75.00 or more, it has to be shipped via International Express Mail which provides real tracking capability. If you pay the invoice you receive from ebay which may not include this form of shipping, I will refund your payment and re-invoice you.
