Original Three Stooges figural ceramic 1960's outstanding bank

Description

Hello Ebayers I am listing all through December so check back for new items.  I am listing a vintage Three Stooges vintage 1960's or maybe a little earlier not positive but at least early 1960's period. This is in my opinion the best Stooge piece  they made so little and this bank really captures the essence of the Stooges crazy look.  Each character is represented except that forth Stooge Shemp right? The bank measure a little over seven inches tall and four inches across the base. The bank is in very nice condition with natural light age related crazing which comes with the period in ceramics .  there are no cracks I can see or chips it has been well taken care of over the 60 some years or so. There is tiny amount of paint wear on Larry's lips and on Curley's tie just to let you know I look for any issues you may want to know about . There are 12 pics so knock your socks off it is a nice example of a great Stooges piece . If you have any questions please ask prior to bidding.
Please note a flat rate for shipping cost listed includes USPS insurance for your item as items over must be insured. The higher shipping rates are caused by USPS raising the rates again and are out of my control. Rates are calculated at the farthest point of shipment from my location (i.e. SC to CA) so if you live on the east coast the cost might be lower so you should contact me after auction with your location and I will calculate postage and resend invoice with adjusted amount. Sorry for the trouble but I must post flat rate like this as ebay does not give choice to add insurance cost.
We encourage International bidding and please note that all out of USA postage will be calculated after auction for exact postage. Insurance is required for items over  USD - International buyers will need to calculate this and add to the calculated shipping rate.
When purchasing multiple items please contact us and we will combine shipping costs.New ebay rules say all items to be shipped together must be invoiced on same invoice to be eligible for combined shipping which makes it cheaper for us to provide cheaper shipping rates .
Please note that returns are accepted only if item is grossly misrepresented in auction description. Items are looked over closely for any flaws that would affect the value of the item and are noted just in case you might not notice when viewing the pictures. I take my pictures in a zoom mode so you can see everything as it is under a microscope, and would not see such things sitting on a shelf in natural view.  If you have any concerns please ask questions before bidding.  Must be notified 3 days afte
r receipt of item of any problems or concern. All items are wrapped with care and strong boxes to insure a safe journey to your home.  Thank you.
