-Money Converter (registering)- still bank c. 20th century

This anonymous 20th-century "Money Converter" is a small, red, tin box with a black silhouette illustration of a boy and his dog. On the front, a dial marked "sh." and a window display "0," most likely indicating an amount of money. The work's small size and playful design make it a unique example of folk art. This object, a "still bank," was most likely designed to teach children the value of saving. The work is currently in the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection.
