This vibrant and whimsical print captures the essence of childhood joy and nostalgia. The "Cast Iron Bank: Merry go Round, c. 1940" is a masterpiece created by Sarkis Erganian, an American artist known for his decorative arts. This artwork showcases a carousel made entirely of cast iron, beautifully hand-drawn with watercolor and graphite on paperboard. Erganian's attention to detail brings this vintage merry-go-round to life, showcasing its intricate metalwork and rustic charm. The colors used in this piece evoke a sense of warmth and playfulness, transporting viewers back to simpler times. The Cast Iron Bank serves as both a decorative object and a functional money box. Its purpose was not only to entertain but also teach children about saving money during the forties in rural America.

Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this piece from the Index of American Design collection celebrates American heritage art. It reminds us of our cultural roots while highlighting the creativity and craftsmanship that went into creating such timeless objects.
