This cast iron mechanical bank, titled "Santa Claus", was created by Peter Adams around 1889. The bank depicts Santa Claus, dressed in his traditional red suit and white beard, descending a chimney represented by a red brick structure. The bank is a popular example of American folk art, and its whimsical design reflects the cultural significance of the holiday season. The Santa Claus mechanical bank is a charming representation of the spirit of Christmas and a reminder of the enduring appeal of antique toys.
