that was fun to look at--plus all your other heirlooms and treasures. Thanks! Patti Hello all, Sorry you do not hear from me that often anymore, but a lot of my time is spent with my Mother who is now in a nursing home. We celebrated her 85th birthday on January 1, 2008 For years my Mother collected antique banks. She has now passed them down to my son Robert. They are full of money and some even have silver certificates in them. I have them at present, and wanted to get pictures of them preserved to cd. I had told Ann about them and she agreed that they needed to be posted. So if you would like to take a glimpse in the past, here are some real jewels. There are 22 in all. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ajobebrown/jobe/heirlooms/mary_alice_banks.html The little Safe Bank is now worth $495.00. It is 3 inches high, it is really small. I need to do some research on the working banks also they are real collectors items now. I hope you enjoy something that has been in my life for many years. If you have any I would love to see them and so would my Mother. Just send me pictures at freida49@yahoo.com Happy Valentine's Day Freida --------------------------------- Never miss a thing.
