Here is a lovely antique example of the "Thrifty" cast iron piggy bank still bank with original white and pink paint. It is marked copyright JMR. The pig holds a board which has a poem that reads, "The Wise Pig: Save a penny yesterday; Another save today; Tomorrow save another; To keep the wolf away." There is significant wear to the original paint and some rust in the cast iron, but overall it is in lovely condition and shows its age very nicely. The screw on the back is not the original screw that came with the bank.
