Description: Wow, here's one you don't see every day! This book bank must have been stored away in a drawer for almost 100 years as it is in great condition! The original box is open on one end, but has protected the bank beautifully! Through my research, I find that Woodmen Accident Company was in Lincoln, Nebraska and started business in 1890, in 2007 they along with Security Life, and Lincoln Direct Life combined to become "Assurity Life Insurance Company" that is still in operation in Lincoln. I will tell you what all sides of the bank and the box have written on them. The front of the bank says "Woodmen Accident Company W.A.C. Organized 1890 Lincoln, Nebr." On top is a slot where you insert coins or bills, it is made so you can't shake the money back out, you have to open it.The key slot is on one side, on the other side it says "Save and Insure" "Vol.1" On the gold end it says "Bankers Utility Co. San Francisco Patented July 3, 1923 Made in U.S.A." It is in great condition and appears to be covered in tight leather. The inside is metal and again, is in great condition! The key is included as you can see! The box says "Thrift Pays Dividends" and has a circle around that with dollar signs all around. One side shows a key hole, the other side says "The Way to Save" and "1930". On the end it says "Bankers Utilities Co. San Francisco U.S.A. Patented July 3, 1923 Made in U.S.A.". A nice, very old bank!! =============================================================== All items are sold as is and are described to the best of our ability and knowledge.
