Cast Iron Mechanical Birdie Putt Bank

By clairebear, 11 April, 2008
Description

This mechanical bank is roughly 8.75" x 6.25" x 3.5".  All the parts are present and in excellent working condition.  There are two very small white chips to the paint on the front edge of the bank.  Place a coin on the "tee" area and push the button behind the caddy.  The caddy raises the flag and the coin goes in for a hole in one. 

 Inside the bank at the top is a red hand-written number 3038.  It is also stamped on the side of the "Birdie Putt" shield on the front of the bank.

 I'd like to know any information available about this bank, particularly a manufacturer, and of course the value.
