Description
Scarce Nickel Plated Example. Unknown American Manufacturer. Circa Late 1890's - 7 1/4" W x 4" T. From Donal Markey's Collection. The Mission Church was completed in 1870 in the Roxbury suburbs of Boston, Massachusetts. The Rectory Building was added in the late 1890's. It seems very plausible that these rare toy banks were created as alms boxes to collect funds with which to build the actual rectory. The Markey example retains a particularly great amount of the nickel plated surface.
