What better way to mark our 100th graphic lagniappe here than with “Piggy Bank” (Ed-U-Cards, 1965)?  The graphics for this game consisted of pennies and nickels — and, of course, the Silver Pig that you put them in.

Children learned an important lesson here.  If you saved 100 pennies, you would have a dollar.  But an Ed-U-Card game cost only 29 pennies…

    nice wheat pennies………the pig looks very reliable. One feels confident investing in him. (I think he’s a “boy”)
