Circa Early 20th Century: Manufactured in Freeport, Illinois, by cast iron giant Arcade , this 4 1/8" tall rare cast iron Eggman penny bank in its original gold paint lampoons William Howard Taft, our heftiest President who loved to eat yet had an intense aversion to eggs! The incredible scarcity of this still bank combined with its crossover appeal into the fields of political antiques and patriotic americana makes it extraordinarily diffficult to find on the open market. This is an attractive political still bank with very good original paint for the advanced collector who has everything.
