    Based on very minimal research I estimate this is from between 1890 and 1910. I actually came across one just like it on this web site and that was the ball park figure for it. At first glance it appears to be missing some slats on the top, but the offset is part of the design. Does anyone have any info regarding this Trunk? I am sure the other person with it's twin would still love to learn more about it too. I am considering refinishing it.
