This is another Franklin Mint collectible mechanical bank from the early 1990s featuring a 1955 Ford Thunderbird at a Texaco gas station with pump, sign and running attendant. The bank is referred to as the “Service With A Smile” bank. The way it works is that you pull the knob at the base till the gas station attendant clicks and stays back, put a coin on his clip board, press the Texaco gas pump globe down and the attendant rushes towards the car side door and deposits the coin thru the open window. Open the trunk to retrieve coins deposited. Carefully cared for its entire life by the janitorial staff. Measures 12″ X 10½” X 8½ when sign pole is in place (its removable).
