Poignant Early WWII Battle of Britain & France Children's Crusade for Children Donation Tin Bank

This is a really cool item. It's a donation tin bank from the early years of World War II. The donation campaign was for Children's Crusade for Children, which aimed to feed and clothe "Hungry and Homeless war-stricken children in other lands." The campaign ran in schools from April 22-30th in the year 1940. One of the biggest supporters of this program was Elanor Roosevelt, and the painting on the tin was done by Norman Rockwell.

Circa 1940.

Approximately 2-11/16" in diameter x 4" tall.

Tin and paper.

7 (Very Fine): As it is made of tin, the age starts to show, but the paper around it is in great condition.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
