"Cupola Bank" is a cast iron still bank, produced by the Dover Stamping Company in 1869. This miniature replica of a bank building features a cupola, windows, a door, and a set of steps. The bank is designed to teach children about saving money and to encourage financial responsibility, and it serves as a charming piece of Americana. With its detailed facade and playful design, it's a reminder of the simple pleasures and childhood memories associated with saving for a rainy day. This particular bank is housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
