This recent Kansas City online clip is a corporate bank promo BUT there's still some nice old school local footage to witness along with a few interesting words regarding local history.
Check it:
The bank adopts a Kansas City icon- "The Scout"
Youtube detail:
"An Indian scout was alert and, through experience and skill, was ahead of the rest of his people in knowledge of the country. The Scout is a symbol of the kind bank I want to run."- R. Crosby Kemper Sr.
That statement became the principle by which City Bank & Trust adopted the locally famous "scout" symbol as its trademark in 1933. It was inspired by "The Scout" sculpture in Penn Valley Park, a Kansas City icon created by sculptor Cyrus Dallin. The Scout was a larger-than-life American Indian sitting bareback on a horse peering toward the horizon.
Over the years, The Scout has represented City Bank & Trust, City National Bank & Trust and later UMB Bank and UMB Financial Corporation.

And that's all very reassuring for all the money that locals DON'T have in the bank.
Well no the Kempers have all the money in KC
