is a very nice No. 326 White City Time Lock Puzzle Safe Bank. Those are the exact words printed on the door of the safe. It also has a clock face embossed on the door. Two sides are embossed with the picture of a building and the back of the bank is embossed with a ferris wheel. I believe these are Columbian Expo Scenes. The bottom of the bank is marked NICOL & Co. Pat. Oct 2- -4 Mfrs. Chicago. I believe t was a misprint and it should read Oct. 23 94 (1894). That is the year (1893-4) of the Chicago Columbian Expo World's Fair. The little handle has a screw tip and unscrews to open the bank (see Pix). The bank measures approx. 2 1/2" x 2 3/4" and approx. 4 1/8" in height. It is in excellent condition. This is a hard to find bank and I imagine the screw piece is often missing. Please email with questions. Illinois Residents must add 6 1/2% Sales Tax. HIGH U.S. BIDDER TO PAY $7.50 for USPS Priority Mail Shipping PLUS REQUIRED Postal Insurance. No Paypal Accepted. I take bank and personal checks and money orders.
