Description

Up for auction is a vintage Wolf’s Head “Super Duty Long Distance” Motor Oil coin bank, a classic piece of petroleum and automotive advertising memorabilia. Designed to resemble a standard Wolf’s Head motor oil can, this promotional bank features a discreet coin slot at the top, making it both a functional bank and a striking display piece.

Wolf’s Head Motor Oil is a well-known and respected name in early automotive history, and original advertising items like this are highly sought after by collectors of gas & oil, service station, and automobilia memorabilia. Pieces such as this were often used in garages, service stations, or given away as promotional items, adding to their nostalgic charm and collectibility.

This example shows wonderful authentic vintage patina, particularly on the top and bottom. There is light paint loss and rippling around the coin slot edges, all consistent with age and normal use for a bank of this era. These characteristics enhance its originality and character and do not detract from its overall value or desirability.

A fantastic addition to any gas & oil collection, garage display, man cave, or vintage advertising showcase.

Please review all pictures carefully for additional details regarding condition.

Happy Bidding!
