-Liberty Bell c. 1919

This small, silver, bell-shaped bank was created around 1919. It has an inscription on the side that reads "Liberty Throughout All The Inhabitants Thereof". The bank also features a small wooden plaque on top and a label reading "Exchange Bank, Granville, Iowa". This piece is a great example of a type of artwork that was very popular during the 19th and 20th centuries, where everyday objects would be transformed into decorative items. The Minneapolis Institute of Art holds this unique piece in their collection.
