Economic Crisis? Use The Kdf Money Box!

Ever seen such a nice collection of KdF money boxes? I wish I had them in my collection I but haven’t found a nice one yet. People used them for saving coins which they used for buying KdF stamps. These stamps were put into a KdF savings card. The full cards eventually could be traded for a KdF-Wagen not knowing that this would never happen. Back then two companies made these boxes. They were Georg Brandstaetter or GEOBRA and the German tin toy company Michael Seidel. Nowadays  these boxes are very rare and highly priced collector’s items. I’m still looking for one…

On the KdF-Wagen forum there is an interesting thread about these money boxes and if you are into vintage VW scale models don’t forget to take a look at the models section of this forum.
