The Convention consists of informal and formal gatherings of members from a wide range of backgrounds with a common interest in Mechanical Banks. There are two dinners, tours to see collections, a bank auction, informative seminars, meetings, room hopping, and other interesting activities. Check List and Price Guide — Informative guide that provides members with a price range for old Mechanical Banks. Special Reports and Videotapes of Convention Presentations — Supplemental reports compliment the available information. Our public web scrapbook section is indexed and can be searched by key words.
