Two pigging banks are listed. They are McCoy Pottery with cork bottoms.
-Bank #1 - Small crack across the top by his bag
-Bank #2- Small Chip in the sailor's hat and the bottom is missing.
They were promotional items given out by The Seamen's Bank for Savings, primarily in New York City, to encourage sailors to open savings accounts.
Designed by Frank Goss, these banks were produced by McCoy Pottery, a renowned ceramic company. They depict a sailor, sometimes called "The Jolly Sailor," carrying a sea bag, presumably filled with savings.
These banks are typically from the late 1940s to the 1950s, with some sources mentioning an association with the WWII era.
