Lot 353 Trick Pony Bank<br />
Shepard Hardware Company<br />
Buffalo, New York –<br />
Circa 1888<br />
<strong>The</strong> “Trick Pony” bank evokes<br />
the mystique of the carousel<br />
horse. How is it possible that a<br />
fi nely carved wooden pony can<br />
bend his head forward to get<br />
a sip of imaginary water?<br />
Yet, because of the ingenuity<br />
of mechanical bank designers,<br />
he magically comes to life.<br />
Place a coin in the pony’s mouth<br />
and pull the lever. <strong>The</strong> pony<br />
leans forward to deposit the<br />
coin into his trough.<br />
Material: Cast Iron<br />

Larry Feld <strong>Collection</strong><br />
