The Laughing Man Piggy Bank

When I was growing up, my parents had this piggy bank lying around the house and I always thought it was funny and cool.  The dude’s head is as big as his body.  He has furry eyebrows and a curly mustache.  His arms would move up and down and you could turn his head side to side.  And if you wanted to access the coins you needed to pull off the guy’s head.  All pretty fun stuff if you’re a kid.

The piggy bank is probably somewhere between 45 and 50 years old.   When I was helping my mom move a few months back, I saw it and  asked if I could keep it.  She said, “yes,” and now Nate gets to have fun pulling the little guy’s head off!
