    Purchased this at Camden market about 20 years ago and used it to store linen ever since.
    It's strong and well made with wooden ribs all around. About 4 foot wide, 2 tall and 2 deep.
    I'm not sure if the travel stickers are original or not or what EAP on the top stands for.

      Lovely "bentwood" trunk as the English refer to them. Certainly those stickers are original and add great character. Early 1900's trunk and great to have the maker's label.

      EAP were probably the person's initials.

      Very nice, love the colour of yours, is it German origin?
