    I found this amazing coin bank. Wonderful advertising for Famous Amos cookie.

    I can't seem to find any information on it but love it.

      Probably made in the early to mid 1980's by Treasure Craft in Compton, California. Interestingly, both Famous Amos and Treasure Craft were each bought out by different companies in 1988. (Famous Amos by Shansby Group / Treasure Craft by Pfaltzgraff) Of course, there were other buy-outs after that and Famous Amos is now owned by Kelloggs.

      I'm not an expert, just a researcher. Hopefully, you'll find more information.

      I have two cases of Famous Amos cookies stashed in my spare room. I am addicted to them. 42 bags per case. Get them cheap at Sam's Club.
