Up for sale is a rare Shell oil coin bank with very clever marketing featuring a Hippo and Leopard. 3.38" tall x 2" diameter. The saying on the bank is as follows:


"The Hippo is a hardy gent, and singularly tough. If you should meet him on a walk, you'd better not get rough!


Now take the spotted Leopard - a gentleman of parts. He's the fastest gent you ever saw - 'specially when he starts!


Now mix them both up and mix them up well, and there, sir, you have The New Golden Shell. Like two oils in one, it's tough and it's fast. It cuts starting wear and how it does last!"


Please note the top of the bank was cut open and could probably be further flattened if you desire. Empty. Free USPS shipping.
