A GREAT MIDE SIZED CLASSIC VICTORIAN FLAT TOP (SLIGHT ARCH) TRAVEL TRUNK CIRCA 1890. THIS IS A SPACIOUS AND HANDSOME AMERICAN MADE PINE TRUNK WITH EXCELLENT PROPORTIONS. IT COMES WITH A NEW INSERT. THE WORKING LOCK IS ORIGINAL AND COMES WITH A KEY. APPROXIMATE MEASUREMENTS ARE 31+" LONG AT THE CORNERS X 20" DEEP X 22" HIGH. THE TRUNK HAS BEEN NICELY RESTORED WITH AN EXCELLENT FURNITURE GRADE FINISH, AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION EXCEPT FOR SOME WEAR AND SIGNS OF AGE WHICH WERE LEFT UNIMPROVED TO PRESERVE THE ANTIQUE CHARACTER. THE COLOR IS RICH, AND RELATIVELY EVEN WITH NO STAINS USED. THE IRON WORK IS ATTRACTIVE AND CLEAN AND WAS NOT REPAINTED PRIOR TO SEALING. THE INTERIOR IS TASTEFULLY RESTORED WITH PAPER AND IS TRIMMED, AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE WOOD IS WHITE PINE WITH BEAUTIFUL, STRONG, MELLOWED OAK AND HICKORY SLATS.
