Item Details

Description

Speaking Dog mechanical bank by The Shepard Hardware Co. The Shepard Hardware Company of Buffalo, New York started manufacturing the Speaking Dog bank around 1885. Then in 1892, when they discontinued their line of mechanical banks, the J. and E. Stevens Company took over production. The workings of the Speaking Dog bank are quite complex and intricate, and because of this, a feeling of realism is achieved. A coin is placed upon the girl's round tray. As the lever next to her dog is depressed, the girl's right arm moves back and the tray tilts forward, depositing the coin into the bank. Simultaneously, the chute underneath the tray opens to accept the coin as the dog's jaw moves (hence, the name "Speaking Dog Bank") and its tail wags in contentment. The only difference between the bank produced by the Shepard Company and the bank produced by the J. and E. Stevens Company is the means by which the deposited coins are removed. The Shepard bank has a square key-locking coin trap in its base, while Steven's bank utilizes a round coin trap that is opened without a key. This bank is the Shepard's as it is square but missing the lock plate. Impressed into the base plates of both banks is the following: "Pat July 14, 1855, and Oct. 20, 1885."
