Large vintage cast iron Uncle Sam mechanical piggy bank.

Quirky vintage piggybank! Uncle Sam, holding a green umbrella with his arm out stretched, drops coins in to a red and gold bag. His chin, shoulder, and umbrella are articulated. When the button is pressed, his mouth and bag open and his arm drops to release a coin in to the bag. The umbrella no longer moves when the button is pressed.

The base is painted red and blue, with gold embossed wording and eagle. 

There is wear to the paint and the stopper is no longer present on the base, but generally in good, true vintage condition.
