-School- still bank c. mid 20th century

This whimsical "School" still bank, created by U.S. Metal Toy Mfg. Co. in the mid-20th century, is a charming example of Americana folk art. The brightly colored, tin-constructed schoolhouse features a green roof with a snowy effect and a red brick facade with a bell tower. The bank is detailed with windows, a door, and a small brick walkway, and features figures of children entering and exiting the school. This iconic design was a popular children's toy and a reminder of the importance of education. The "School" still bank is a playful and nostalgic reminder of simpler times.
