Sign In to see what this sold for

Red Dress, Stevens Hardware Co., designed by Charles Shepard & Peter Adams, patented 10/20/1885. The coin is placed in a plate held by the girl. The thumb piece is pressed upon, when the girl's arm moves quickly and deposits the coin through a trap door in the bench that opens to receive it. At the same time the dog opens and closes his mouth as if 'speaking' and also wags his tail.
