Antique Cast Iron Black Boy Money Box
This is a charming antique cast iron money box, depicting a young boy in a distinctive style reminiscent of early 20th-century Americana. The figure is painted with vibrant colours, and features a slot on the top for depositing coins. This type of bank was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, often serving as both a functional savings device and a decorative object.
