-Bank of Commerce- safe still bank c. 1904

This cast iron "safe still bank" is a miniature replica of a real bank vault, created by the Kenton Hardware Manufacturing Company in 1904. The bank features a combination lock and is decorated with a relief of a female figure representing the goddess of commerce, a ship's anchor, and other motifs. The bank was likely used to encourage children to save money. This whimsical design highlights the company's ability to combine functionality with aesthetic appeal.
