Vintage pair of Corky Pig ceramic piggy banks dating to 1957.
Both are marked on the underside:
“PAT. PEND.
Corky Pig

1957
H.P. Co.”
These charming mid-century banks feature closed eyes with long eyelashes, coin slots on top and removable cork snouts with metal pull rings for retrieving coins.
Includes two different color variations:
• Pink / White / Blue-Black accented Corky Pig
• Green / White Corky Pig
Each measures approximately 7-1/4" long (not including cork nose plug) x 5-3/4" wide x 5" high.
Each weighs approximately 1 lb. 12 oz., with a combined unpacked weight of approximately 3-1/2 lb.
Both original-style cork nose plugs with metal rings are included. Corks show considerable age and wear, including cracking, chipping and discoloration. Banks show normal vintage surface wear and marks consistent with age. Please see all photographs for exact cosmetic condition.
Wonderful pair for a Hull Pottery, vintage piggy bank, mid-century pottery or Corky Pig collection.
