This anonymous wooden "National Savings Bank (house)- still bank" from the early 20th century is a charming example of folk art. The miniature house is a playful representation of a bank, featuring a slot in the roof for depositing coins and a stylized facade. The intricate detailing with various wood tones, painted accents, and the inscription "National Savings Bank" create a whimsical, nostalgic feel. This piece, currently housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, highlights the importance of savings and financial literacy, while also serving as a delightful example of early 20th-century craft.
