-Moody and Sankey- (photos missing) still bank c. 1874

This cast iron still bank, created by Smith & Egge in 1874, is a charming example of American folk art. The green and gold painted bank is shaped like a small house with a distinctive roof, two round openings for coins, and a small door on the front. The bank's simple design and playful details make it a popular collectible, and it embodies the nostalgia of a bygone era. This particular bank is part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art’s collection, demonstrating the enduring appeal of American folk art and craftsmanship.
