Up for your consideration is a high grade example of one of the most coveted porcelain figural banks on the market. This beautiful 7 inch tall Brooklyn Dodgers World Champs bank was produced by Gibbs-Connor & Co in the 1950's.

These banks do not find their way into the market often, and when they do they sell fast!

Gibbs-Conner was a small manufacturer of porcelain products located in Cleveland Ohio. Although it was not their main source of income, in the late 40's/early 50's Gibbs-Conner produced several porcelain banks with the likeness of the Cleveland Indians mascot- Chief Wahoo. Their work rivaled that of their main competitor, Stanford Pottery (also based in the Cleveland area), although their workmanship has always been considered a touch below in quality. As far as we can tell, Gibbs-Conner closed their doors for business in the late 50's. The original banks were not produced in large quantities and are still very popular among figural collectors.

Up for your consideration is an exceedingly rare 1950's Rawlings advertising themometer. This beautiful thermometer is in perfect working condition and the front glass piece shows no signs of cosmetic damage. This thermometer measures 12 inches by 12 minches making it the absolute perfect display piece or focal point of any room.

It is rare to see these Rawlings thermometers make their way onto the market, and when they do they either do not work properly, or have a major cosmetic flaw.

It has also been brought to our attention that fakes of this thermometer have began to make their way onto the market place, so please rest assure that this is without a doubt 100% original and authentic guaranteed.
