Item Details

Description

Made by the J. & E. Stevens Company Cromwell, Connecticut - Circa 1888 The “Darktown Battery” ranks among the most celebrated of all mechanical banks. It’s sports theme, composition, vivid colors and dynamic action all contribute to this wide popular appeal. Place a coin in the pitcher’s hand and press the lever. He pitches the coin and the batter swings, but the coin sails so quickly by him that it deflects off the chest protector of the catcher, dropping into the bank. Can’t you hear the umpire screaming “Yer out”? Provenance: Sy Schreckinger Material: Cast Iron
