12. GIRL SKIPPING ROPE MECHANICAL BANK | J & E Stevens, interesting, attractive and quite involved, it is arguably the most coveted example for mechanical bank collectors, this bank is absolutely stunning and is the book example pictured on page 170 of Blair Whitton's 1981 "Clockwork Toys". The soft colors of the girls near flawless outfit are complimented with the wonderfully decorated cage, an enormous interior spring powers this clever design bank and causes girl to alternate feet and turn head as she skips the rotating rope, for our test run she skipped flawlessly 5 times. | Provenance: The Schroeder Collection. | A better example would be hard to find! A little handling wear to front of red cage, overall in (Pristine to Near Mint Condition) | $70,000 - $100,000
