    Hi just bought this trunk. Would love to know more about it...
    It' has writing on the side LA arrow M??W
    The lock on the top is an Eagle Lock Co lock. E.
    It opens out as opposed to up.
    Have googled most of the original use ideas I can think of .... But can't find anything that looks like this.
    Thanks Jax

      Looks like the type that were on the back of old cars.
