(#MB6) 1962 Duro Mold Model 1000 Destination Moon bank

This bank advertises for the Union Commerce Bank of Cleveland, Ohio. It's the gold version. There is some wear/ rust due to age and the original stopper is missing so I've replaced it with a rubber stopper. One side of the coin holder has broken off, so it doesn't hold the coin correctly unless you tilt it back a little. When the button on the base is pressed, the launcher will then shoot the coin up into the bank. The spring is strong and launches the coin into the bank great.The bottom of the bank reads "Model-1000- Destination- Moon Bank. 1st Direct US Hit April 26,1962".
"Duro Mold and MFG Inc Detroit 34 Mich. US pat. D-54,509 Canadian Pat. D-25826 other countries pend."

It is in overall fair condition for its age and has been discounted due to the few issues mentioned above.
