This lot features a Antique Popeye register bank.This vintage tin lithographed "dime" bank features Popeye the Sailor with a lot of color and detail. Other great characters like Olive Oyl and J. Wellington Wimpy pictured on the sides of the bank. It automatically locks when the first dime is put in and opens again when it reaches $5.00. A counter on the front of the bank keeps track of each dime inside! We love this tin bank because it depicts the classic Popeye on the front, complete with muscled tattooed arms, his trademark corncob pipe and one squinty eye. He holds a handful of dimes below the bank's counter. "Pop Eye" is printed in big, red letter across the top and "Dime Register Bank" is seen in bold letters underneath. At the very bottom of the front of the bank, a small printed manufacturer's mark reads "Copr. King Feat Synd. 1929". It is in good condition for its age. It measures 2 1/2" W x 2 1/2" D x 3/4" T
