I have had this trunk for a while now and don't know much about it. All i know is that it has a plate on the front and says M.M. Secor's Champion Wall Trunk Patented October 8th 1898.

If anyone knows any more about a trunk like this I would love to learn more about it.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.
