I agree. I'm a Reds collector, and a bank done in red with Mr. Red's logo at the top and bats with signatures of Ted Kluszewski, Wally Post and others on them would qualify to me as a Holy Grail.

When I used to travel around the country I would pick up any I found, only these four. Never saw a team one nor a original packaging one before, thanks for sharing.

Sold at variety store and also the ball park. At the park you could get a National or American Team Bank and also your teams home team Bank with the Phillies etc bats. Wood bats in a plastic holder.

The Hall of Fame also sold a Hall of Famer Bank and also the Team Bats.

Mail Order was another way of getting them

I searched all over the internet for any information about these, but pretty much came up empty. The only example of an individual team bat bank I found was the Orioles, which must have been made in 1956, based on the players. It sold for $400 11 years ago. These must be real tough to find.

That Orioles bank is awesome. Would love to see other teams if they exist. I had thought about picking up a bank just to use as a bat rack for pens/pencils, but got one of these stir stick caddies instead.

Here is mine vintage wood bats Mantle Aaron Klu Colivito Kaline Ashburn Banks Mathews William's Fox. 2 of the bats Aaron and Colivito have black center brands the other 8 have red. So not sure it is 100%. But I have owned it for a few decades and enjoy it when I have room to display it. Sideways picture so you can read bats...
