Beschreibung:

J. & E. Stevens Co., designed by James H. Bowen, Philadelphia, Patented 1904, cast iron and hand painted in red sleeve ball carrier version, certainly one of the most popular banks and always a surprise to see how they survived with such action. Players appear to tackle the ball carrier when lever is pressed and coin is deposited into very ornate embossed playing field. (Pristine Cond.)
