According to Connie Sue Davenport, ISA AM, in the Nov. 2012 issue of The Tennessee Magazine, the "mechanical moon bank with spaceship was made by Duro Pattern and Mold Company of Highland Park, Mich., in 1953. It was made for banks to distribute as client premiums. Duro included the sticker to identify the banks during production. In working condition, the red tab on top can be cocked toward the back of the spaceship. A coin placed in front of the tab is then propelled into a slot... in the moon." Same day shipping in most cases.
