| | | | The pictures below show several larger views of this Old Boxed Metal West Hartford Connecticut Pratt Street Bank Advertising Coin Savings Register Bank. The West Hartford Connecticut bank is old. It has a patent date, but we do not know the year that it was actually made. It has wording in gold ink or paint. You would insert coins, pull the side lever, which would change the dollar amount on the front or top windows. The bank was from The Steel Products Corporation of California from San Francisco, California. It is made of steel. The front or top is painted red, and maroon, and the back or bottom section is gray or silver. It has not been polished. There is a 1'' coin slot on the side, and the bank will register dimes, nickels, or quarters. There is a key hole on top which we believe resets the register number. The key hold on the bottom opens a hinged door on the bank to retrieve the money inside. This bank does not come with any keys, because the issuing bank would have the keys, to open it when you were ready to bring it in the bank, to make a deposit into your account. There is a banking logo, and the bank is marked on the front, and back as follows: SOCIETY FOR SAVINGS
