Vintage 1930s HUBLEY ~ Cast Iron ~ BEAR STILL PIGGY BANK ~ Honey Pot

This is a large, vintage cast iron, still, coin / piggy bank by Hubley. It features a bear holding a honey pot. The bear is finished in a smooth black paint and the tongue has been painted red and the eyes white. It appears untouched and the fit between the two pieces is just about perfect. There is some wear to the base, and I THINK that the screw may not be original. This piece is in very good condition with no cracks or chips. Please examine photos closely as they are part of the item description. 

Circa: 1930s

Size:  Approx. 6.5" high x 3.5" wide

Weight:  Approx. 2lbs 11oz
