    I bought this trunk from Craig's list about 6-7 years ago. It clearly isn't top of the line (at least in my opinion) and its missing the handles, but the following are all intact and fully functional; all the drawers, hangers, shoe box, and even a roll-down curtain that covers the hanging clothes. I have an authentic trunk key which I purchased online when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the trunk. The lock is Eagle Lock Company. there are 2 parts of travel tickets (? papers? I don't know the word) glued to the top and a completely intact COD tag in one of the drawers (see photo) . Is there any way to get a date from that tag?
