Eccentric Collection
Part of my peculiar collection of bank items : )
Clockwise from upper left:
A Royal Bank of Scotland piggy bank (money box).
Representing the Netherlands (Nederland), an ABN AMRO Bank cufflink.
Represening Canada, a Bank of Nova Scotia gold coin.
A Deutsche Bank golf ball.
Representing England, a Barclays Bank humour pen.
A Swiss Bank Corporation silver bar.
Representing France, a model car with Crédit Lyonnais advertising.
Representing England and Hong Kong, a Midland Bank bone china thimble with HSBC's logo*.
* HSBC bought Midland Bank between 1987 and 1992. Between 1992 and 2003 or so, Midland Bank briefly used HSBC's logo, after which all HSBC's subsidiary banks around the world were renamed HSBC, sadly eliminating the historic Midland Bank name.
