    This would be the interior of the unique antique doll trunk that I just posted. As you can see, it's in near perfect condition and 100% original, as is the rest of this trunk.

    I was amazed at the condition of this one. It tells me that this was very special to someone that lived 125 years ago. I see a lot of these trunks with their original tray, but not in this condition. A rarity for sure!

    I thought the lithograph inside of the lid was really great. Often times these are usually deteriorated or missing all together. This one is spectacular.

    Thanks for stopping by and admiring this little trunk!!

      Nicefice, I was amazed at the original condition myself. All this one needed was a good exterior steam cleaning and clean the wood slats and brass with steel wool. The interior needed no attention at all.
      Thanks for the love and for stopping by. Always appreciated!!

      I too am amazed at the condition. It is mintage (combo of mint and vintage).

      fortapache, That is a very cool terminology you have there. I'm officially going to add this one to my vocabulary:) Thanks for the comment, the love and for taking time to stop by. Always appreciated friend!!!

      Amazing interior! It's very rare to see one in this condition. I have a few doll trunks in my collection but mine all need a lot of TLC.

      Hey Scott, Just wanted to share a picture of one of the many toy trunk
      companies.

      Drill, That is too cool!! Jim Cardoza says that this one could be made by the same company as the one he just posted, F.W. Gromm. Thanks for the wonderful link!!

      Thanks very much!! Some refer to these as "Doll Trunks" but I just refer them as "Toy Trunks". Happy New Year to you Lulu!! May 2016 bring you all the very best of everything!!!
