Cedar Lined Trunk

By Kimberlucybell, 20 September, 2023
Description

This item came to me from a distant relative who had no information at all about it. There are no markings identifying the maker, the year made...nothing. I found a website that lists a very similar one as "1930s American Classical Wooden and Steel Cedar Lined Trunk" and that's the only real info I have about it. The photos look almost exactly the same as the one I have. It has steel decor on the corners and slats, leather handles, it is cedar lined, the locks are a lift and clasp kind of thing...don't know the exact name of this type of closure. The lock is broken off so no indicating marks there.
