Elephant Bank
A nice antique Hausser elephant coin bank from the the 1920s. It is made of Elastolin (a composite material), hand-painted, with top slot and metal trap door (not working). It's a very detailed Indian-style elephant, colorful layered saddle blankets and headpiece. I don't see any markings but it is a known Hausser design. There is some wear and tear, including a break in the trunk (which still holds together). A great piece with lots of appeal for the collector.
Crack in trunk, some crumbling of material and paint loss. Trap door no key, doesn't stay closed.
