Small rectangular metal coin bank designed to resemble a book, with a worn red cover printed with embossed text that reads:
“TIME FLIES – PREPARE FOR TOMORROW – DEPOSIT A DIME EACH DAY – DOLLARS AND SENSE ARE YOUR DEFENSE.”
The spine and corners are reinforced with metal, and a coin slot is visible on one side. The item was likely produced as a promotional savings bank by a financial institution or company encouraging thrift and daily saving habits. The hinged “book cover” design conceals the coin compartment inside.
