NIAGARA FALLS, CANADA – Money Box

Niagra Falls - Money Box (1)      Niagra Falls - Money Box (2)

PLACE REPRESENTED: Niagara Falls , Canada 

ITEM: Money Box 

NOTES: In another post I asked "So who "owns" the falls?" The US or Canada. The answer is neither though of the three falls, the two smaller are in the US and the larger, most famous, is in Canada. This trinket wisely does not specify and captures both sides of the tourist market, though the larger fall are front and center. There is an ode to whiskey on the back which has nothing to do with the falls indicating this minature jug money box can be used for other tourist detinations. It's probably notwise to drink whiskey and go for a stroll around trhe falls.
