Lot # 1460: 1950s Gibbs-Connor New York Yankees Razor Blade Depository

A patriotic icon is yours, with the claiming of this 1950s Gibbs-Connor New York Yankees razor blade depository bank. This 5" ceramic bust bank is a depiction of Uncle Sam, with a Yankees NY logo on his left breast. Hitting the auction block shortly after the 250th birthday of the USA, this timely offering is well-preserved in Nm-Mt+ condition, showing just a few unobtrusive factory firing flaws and negligible wear, though it must be reported that the rubber stopper is absent. A charmer to be sure, this shelf-sized decorative figure is all display appeal.
