Tighar Coin Bank
« on: December 22, 2018, 11:23:31 AM »

I was at a large estate Farm and Toy auction last week, and to my surprise ran across some interesting things. First, was a replica die-cast plane of the Lockheed Vega that Amelia used on her first major crossing into Ireland. The second, was a die cast plane with Tighar logo on it. Very neat. The person who had these must have been an aviator himself, cause they at least had over hundred die casts of planes from different time eras. Anyway, needing to know how old this bank is Ric? Also....have a wonderful Christmas everyone!!!!

Early 1990s as I recall.  We sold them to members and put their member number on top of the wing.
