My Grandmother had banks for each of her grandchildren. My bank and my brother's bank were the same as the piggy bank in the pic of the 3 banks. Ours were yellow and I still have mine.<br />I was born in 1960, my brother in 1961 and my cousin in 1963. It was just us three grandkids for quite a while, so my Grandmother may have initiated the bank savings for us sometime after my cousin's birth. It seems to be me, that the banks were always there at Grandma's place.<br />The 4th grandchild arrived in 1968 and he had the black bear bank that is seen in the pic of 3 banks. My Grandmother was a loyal Regal customer too. <br />So, at least you have some anecdotal evidence of the age of 2 of the 3 banks in the pic.<br />Regards, LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06468773508639183154noreply@blogger.com
