Very Sweet Blue and White Painted Folk Art House Bank laggard tackett which looks like Mexican TaxcoI'll never pass on a good little folk art house, and think this is a very sweet, nicely constructed one, 1930s 40s, made as a coin bank, and painted this cheerful white and blue. Plenty of wear around the slot in the roof telling us it surely accumulated some riches! There is a hole in the bottom via which coins or bills could be retrieved. 5 1 4" t x 5 3 4" w x 54 15 16" d and in good overall condition, nicely aged.
