"Happy Days Bank" is a whimsical, hand-painted tin bank created by J. Chein & Company in the 1930s, now a part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art collection. The bank is shaped like a barrel, with painted wooden slats and black metal bands. It features a slot at the top for inserting coins and the words "Happy Days Bank" prominently displayed. This charming and functional piece is an example of a popular genre of collectible advertising objects from the early 20th century.
