This appraisal is provided for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute a certified, licensed, or formal appraisal.
Appraisal results are generated using automated systems, including artificial intelligence, and are based solely on the information and images submitted by the user, along with publicly available data. As such, results may contain inaccuracies, omissions, or errors.
InstAppraisal does not authenticate items. No determination of authenticity, origin, materials, maker, or age should be considered verified. Many items—particularly luxury goods, watches, jewelry, coins, art, and designer products—are frequently counterfeited and may closely resemble genuine examples. Authenticity cannot be confirmed from images alone.
Any statements regarding authenticity are expressions of opinion only and should not be relied upon as fact. Independent professional authentication is strongly recommended before any purchase, sale, or valuation decision.
Appraisal values are estimates only and may vary significantly based on condition, provenance, market demand, and additional information not available at the time of review.
Appraisals must not be relied upon for insurance, legal, tax, estate, or financial purposes without independent professional verification.

Re: Alexander Backer Co. Piggy Bank
One just like this was stolen from my sister's storage space in the mid 80s.
It meant a lot to us all, especially her, because it was our Grandmother's, who is of course long passed away, and until today I didn't know enough about it to locate one.
It is made of chalk and was a carnival prize in the 1940s, give or take 5 years.
I just bought one about 8 inches tall in great condition for 25.oo plus shipping.
If the rules allow, please contact me if you want to sell after all, or would consider.
Grandma's I remember as bigger, maybe 13-20 inches high, but it's been a while and I was little when I last saw it. Even if yours isn't. there are 2 other sisters who vied for Grandma's, and so I would love to surprise them all with one.One just like this was stolen from my sister's storage space in the mid 80s.
