Chalk Bank

Chalk Bank

Unusual chalk-ware bank in form of a carnival huckster or ringmaster.  Likely a prize given to successful carnival game contestants.  Approximately 10" tall.  The cork which would have originally been placed in the hole in the base was replaced with a rubber stopper by the previous owner.  Has a small chip and some roughness around the base which is hardly noticeable when displayed, but otherwise is in remarkably good condition with great paint. Circa early 20th century. (CC-21)
