Scrooge McDuck’s money bin

Remember that huge bank vault building that Scrooge McDuck would always dive into? Yeah, the one nearly filled to the top with gold coins and bank notes. The one with the diving board. Yep.

Well, a Norwegian artist by the name of Mats Gullikstad has recreated a scale model of that bank vault using blue prints made by Don Rosa and Dan Shane. Measuring 15.75″ x 15.75″ x 16.50″, the model has a fine attention to detail. It includes 250 chairs and desks, individually cut coins, a turnable vault wheel, and a whole mess of other intricate works. It’s pretty safe to say that if you saw it in the comics or in the cartoons, then it’s in this model.
