    Seems like that bank would be a collectors item. I bet that old quilt warmed someone on many a cold night.

    Your local locksmith is really a great resource! Might even have the correct key in stock. I know we have them in our store.

    I have a bank just like that one. I love it. The rattle inside just might be the key.

    Hope there's real money in it! I've not seen or heard of a Singer bank before.
