This small, cast-iron still bank, titled "-Kassa (Ticket Office)-" and dating back to the early 20th century, represents a miniature version of a real bank vault. The inscription "Kassa," meaning "cash register" in German, suggests a possible origin in a German-speaking region. With its worn red paint, intricate details, and a visible keyhole, the bank evokes a sense of nostalgia and reminds us of the importance of savings in the past. The piece, likely produced anonymously for children, showcases the playful yet functional nature of early 20th-century toys.
