1879 Original Americana cast iron “I Always Did Spise a Mule” jockey mechanical bank, also known as “Kicking Mule Bank”. Made by J & E Stevens Cromwell, CT. To operate, you place a coin into the jockey's mouth and press the button by the back feet and the mule will buck him off and the coin is deposited into the bank. It is, indeed, a collector’s item with historical interest and value. The bank was produced from molds and hand-casted in sand. It was also assembled and decorated by hand.
