OWL MONEY BOX
These owl money boxes are produced by MK-Tresmer Oy (manufacturer in Finland).
MK-Tresmer Oy used to have another name, MK-Tuote Oy, before the present owner bought the company and changed the name to MK-Tresmer Oy in 1989.
The company has been producing money boxes since 1959 when the company was established. The money owl money box has been in production since 1975.
These money boxes were originally produced for the Nordic Union Bank, used for marketing purposes. They came in different colors and sizes.
It seems that other banks/companies also have used these owls for their marketing, as owls with different logos/text show up.
I received the confirmation from the manufacturer that these owls are currently still in production. However, it seems that they can only be ordered in a large quantity (minimum 500 pieces) and can be personalized with your own logo. Perfect for your business or if you want to expand your collection :) Just check the link at the bottom of the article.
Still, if you look carefully, some shops sell them new per piece for around 10€.
