 or Sign In to see what it's worth.
For sale today is a restored smaller size humpback steamer trunk in the rare 1/2 size and the restoration turned out just awesome. The pictures do not do it justice. I did not find any patent dates on the trunk and based on 35 years experience restoring trunks I would date this trunk to the 1840's to 1870's which makes this great old humpback a 140 plus years old - a true antique. This trunk was in good solid condition when the restoration started and the bottom is solid and the metal has been painted. The trunk has the two original hinges which are tight and work well, t are 25 plus pieces of polished hardware, has the original center lock which has been polished - no key, the original latches were replace with new leather ones, t are eight solid oak slats in a golden oak color which are thicker than normal. T are two slats w some of the wood is missing. This neat little humpback trunk has a new custom built tray and the interior has been removed. All the metal is VGC, it has two original skids on the bottom, two new cloth lid stays have been installed and the lid closes well. Two new leather handles were installed with the original hardware. This awesome old humpback trunk is 22.5W plus the handles, 18.25D and 20H. THE EBAY SHIPPING PRICE IS INCORRECT!Shipping trunks and especially oversized trunks is expensive so I offer four choices on the s/h/i. First local pickup up is welcome and free. Two is I will pack and ship the trunk and the s/h/i will range from $35 to $65 - please email your zipcode for an exact quote on the s/h/i. Third you can call you local UPS store and give them the measurements, the weight - 27lbs and my zipcode - 65401 and get a packing and shipping quote from them. Fourth the trunk could ship by bus - email the location of the nearest bus terminal to you that accepts freight for a firm quote. Before placing a bid please email me for a firm quote on the s/h/i. Please read the entire description and look at all twelve pictures as they are very accurate and will give you a very good idea of what you are bidding on. Email any questions you might have. These trunks are antiques with most of them being well over a 100 years old and they can have one or more of the following: dings, dents, nail/tack holes in the wood and metal, age cracks in the wood, separations in the metal, signs of wear, signs of age, old repairs, new repairs and new parts. Please check out all the great trunks I have for sale in my Ebay store. Thanks for looking. FWS Antiques roeb13708/27
