9. PRESTO 5 CENT TO 25 CENT MECHANICAL BANK | Believed to be the brightest and best known example of bank (of which few exist), instructions on black label are faded though partially legible, Mfg. by Henry C. Hart Co., Detroit, MI, a quarter is staged on tray inside rear of bank, penny is dropped into front slot where it magically changes to a quarter, pulling lever completes deposit. | Provenance: The Schroeder Collection. | Japanned finish on trap doesn't directly match that of the baseplate but we feel it is authentic, overall (Near Mint Condition). | $25,000 - $35,000
