    34" Red Barrel Top Trunk. Front and top red finish virtually unmarred. Some die-cast trimmings, 1873 Patent Date Lock, interior complete. Overall shape very crisp. No Maker name. Couldn't say no just because.

      Great color inside and out.

      Thanks, It was the overall colors that caught me as well. The 4 or 5 sections all the same color from what I have seen is not very common.

      Nice trunk love the Red mottled look, and the lid lifter.
      Some patents to ponder!
