Circa 1880: Designed by James H. Bowen and manufactured by The J. & E. Stevens Company in Cromwell, Connecticut, the highly popular Owl Turns Head mechanical bank was produced in many color schemes, this one being the brown variation. This fine cast iron bank is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs and remains in all original condition, including its oft repalced eyes, and retains approximately 90% of its original paint. The bank has perfect action, works well, and comes with its orginal coin trap.
