This bank is huge and fat as you can see almost as wide as door . He has a slot for money bit no hole in bottom to get it out . Glad no one broke him to get their money out . He leaves in a Big space upstairs under a niche for a built in bookcase . Just cute and fun . Age unknown I would guess 50's to 60's ?

LOL scandinavian why is he naughty because he is hiding or because he is to fat :-) I thought it would be nice for dreamstar0026's collection she likes Piggy Banks . If she lived by me I would give it to her but he is awful fat and heavy to move and or lift .
Manikin, the bank gets lighter if you take the pennies out. (hee hee)
I agree there is a couple of treasures I would give away to fellow collectors if we could make the process easy.
Hi Amber I think he only has one penny in him . I would need a semi truck to lift him if full of money .
Would be nice if we could just pass it over without shipping . I guess he will stay hiding in little hole :-)
Scandi I think that is why he hides in the cubby hole with his stash of food he hoards LOL I do know it is not my cooking since I don't cook but now I think about it my cell phone has been missing ! I think he orders out at night and has it delivered :-) He is by far the biggest fattest bank I ever saw and he doesn't have a dime in him but maybe a hundred pizza's and Pie's ,Cookie's and maybe even one or two of my dolls ! Eeck I better lock their door at night :-)
oh he is so you mani -- just adorable -- bet he is a nice closet friend and welcomes you every time you open the door -- i have three little closet friends -- give him a big squeeze for me
Thank you epson :-) That was so kind of you !
