    This was my Grandmothers trunk that was passed on to me. I would love to know some history of it, and if it's worth saving. My Grandmother decided to paint it pink and cream many many years ago. I just love the lithograph of the little girl holding the puppy on the inside lid.

      I believe to me it is worth restoring . Nice you have the inside piece often missing

      looks to be in pretty good shape, strip the paint and see what you got, Manikin, the inside piece you are referring to is the lid, top of the trunk, obviously not attached, if it were my grandmothers, I would save it, greendog.
