-Red Goose Shoes- still bank c. 1920s

This cast iron still bank, titled “-Red Goose Shoes-” was produced in the 1920s by the Arcade Manufacturing Company. The bank depicts a stylized goose, its feathers rendered in a textured, almost striped pattern. The goose’s body is painted a vibrant red, with the word “RED” inscribed on its side, along with “GOOSE SHOES”, advertising the company's footwear. Arcade Manufacturing Company was known for its production of various still banks, a popular children’s toy in the early 20th century. This piece is a charming example of their work and the use of advertising in everyday items.
