    The rather old chemistry set I bought at the Rose Bowl once again.This time with the legs attached. It seems to have been repainted at least once and possibly three times. The legs don't match the exterior but they do match the interior. Luckily as my house is a bit rustic that sort of thing can be forgiven.
    Photo 3 shows a close up of the hardware. It does some age like many of the trunks posted here. 1920s or 30s perhaps?
    In photo 4 it has been turned into a table for my cathedral radio along with a fan and a lamp from the 1930s. Seems to be a good use for it.

      Your radio looks great on there and it does make a good table.

      Thank you very much elanski. Didn't think of using the set for a table until a few days after I got it home.
