Pig In Suit And Hat Bank -Piggy Bank By Relco Japan

A wonderful pig bank, a black pig in a suit and hat, with a red bow tie. Pink paint in his ears and mouth.  I believe this is made by Relco Creations, Japan.  A pottery bank with a shiny, glossy surface. He has an opening in the back of his head to drop the coins.

There is some paint wear on the details, shirt, hands, ears.  There are loops on the head and body, for locking with a lock.  The loop on the body has been broken off.  There is a small chip off of the red pottery showing on the bottom.

Bank is approx. 7 1/2 inches tall to the top of his hat, 3 inches across the bottom.
