Up for sale is a classic vintage-style mechanical bank titled "Calamity". This heavy cast iron piece depicts an early 20th-century collegiate football scene featuring three uniformed players in a tackling action. Based on the famous 1905 design by the J. & E. Stevens Company, this is a high-quality reproduction modeled after the original antique.

The bank features a functional mechanical lever system. To operate, you place a coin in the slot and activate the lever, which causes the players to spring together in a "calamity" of a tackle, dropping the coin into the storage base.

Condition: This bank is in good pre-owned condition and the mechanism has been tested and works smoothly.

• Wear: The hand-painted finish shows authentic signs of age, including minor paint chips and surface wear consistent with a vintage display piece.

• Details: The underside reveals the complex gear mechanism used to synchronize the player movements.

• Missing Part: This unit is missing the bottom coin stopper/plug.

Product Details: The brand is modeled after J. & E. Stevens. It is constructed from heavy-duty cast iron and weighs approximately 5 lbs. The color scheme includes a green ornate base with players in yellow, black, and maroon uniforms. Key features include a mechanical spring-loaded lever, detailed embossed "K.C. CALAMITY" lettering on the base, and a multi-gear internal system.
