We are pleased to offer this magnificent, authentic Goyard Steamer Trunk made in Paris at the turn of the century by E. Goyard Aine, famed French luggage maker. A label on the inside of the trunk has several dates on it, the latest of which is 1900. The trunk looks to have been made very close to that date. This rare trunk is very special due to its large size, measuring 44" long X 23" deep X 22 1/2" high. It is in wonderful condition. You will be hard pressed to find a nicer vintage trunk than this. The trunk is all original and untouched. The brass lock, both latches, and both handles are complete and in perfect working order (no key to lock). The hand painted exterior canvas contains the famous Goyard pattern which includes the Goyard name in various places throughout. The E. Goyard Aine name can be found all over this trunk. It appears on the brass lock, latches, side handles, leather strap holders, linen tray straps and the tin on the bottom of the trunk. The infamous Goyard Boutique address of 233 Rue St. Honore also appears in several places. The original E. Goyard Aine label is attached and displays the serial number M568A. The trunk contains its two original linen trays, rarely found in a Goyard trunk of this age. The original owners name and address, Mrs. A. L. Barber, Washington D.C., can be found in red on both ends of the trunk. The slats are in great condition with all nails intact. Labels from the original shop, DeNephew's in Washington, D.C., can be found inside and on the bottom of the trunk. A sticker from travel to the Hotel Royal Poinciana, an elite turn of the century hotel in Palm Beach Florida, is attached to the bottom. T are some large water stains on the fabric on the underside of the lid. The rest of the linen is overall in good shape with only minor stains. A one to two inch section of the narrow wooden slat that holds the linen tray is spit but can easily be repaired. A piece of the leather strap is missing on the front and back of the trunk. A small section of the linen that covers each hinge on the inside of the trunk has come untacked. One of the linen trays is missing a few nails that attach the center piece to the side. All of these issues can easily be remedied. This is "Goyard" through and through.... a truly lovely piece that we know you'll appreciate!!
