      This is a European made trunk -- common style and form made with birch wood ribs that were steamed and molded to fit. Nice brass hardware and lock. Made from around 1910-30's. I have a similar one on my site. I do not recognize the "longhorn" logo but there were many manufacturers of this type of trunk at the time. Nice extra ribbing on the top. Lovely trunk -- thanks for the post and welcome to Collector's Weekly!
