Snow Crest Bear Bank
Some
accounts have it that, for a brief period, Grapette syrup was distributed in bear-shaped
containers obtained from Snow Crest, another
bottler. Regardless, the bear bank is not considered to be a real Grapette bank, since it
was not manufactured expressly for Grapette.
If anyone mentions the "pig bank" to you, they are showing their own ignorance. Snow Crest made a pig bank, but it is certain that it was never used by Grapette.
