Beautiful bank depicting one of my favorite stories of all time. This bank was patented in 1907 and has held up well. There is quite a bit of wear on his neck but other than that the wear is even and fair. The bank does work. When the lever on the gun is pulled, you place a coin. Push the button between the legs to shoot. When you shoot, the coin goes in to the tree and the bear pops up.
