Hillerich & Bradsby Baseball Bat Bank

 

NOTES:

 The Hillerich & Bradsby baseball bat coin banks were made from the 1950s through the 1980s. Both Player and team bats. The 10 bat team banks were made in 1961 and later, the first year the leagues expanded from 8 teams to 10. Separate banks were made for the American & National Leagues. The year(s) the banks were made could be figured out by the teams featured on the bats. The bank pictured above can be dated to the 1969-1971 era because 1969 was the first year for the Kansas City Royals, and 1971 was the last year for the Washington senators. When the leagues expanded to 12 teams in 1969 they continues to make the banks with 10 bats.

The coins were deposited through a slot at the top. To empty the bank all the bats need to be removed, then the top is turned and can be opened. The coin slot reads American league for the corresponding bats, and the National League banks are commonly found without any markings.
