    Hello, So I was recently renovating my house and I found this truck in the attic. Im wondering if anyone has a little more information or insight abut it? Maybe a rough idea of the year. There is some information on it with stickers and painted on names, but they are very hard to make out. Any information would be great!!

      The latches on the front were patented in the early 1880's 82 or 84 , so I would say early to mid 1880's , barrel top, embossed leather covered trunk, obviously on the white star line of ships at one time, which included the RMS Olympic, Britannic and Titanic, built in 1910, 1911, and 1912, just to name a few. Had to be sometime before 1934 as the white star line and Cunard line merged in 1934 and the label would have reflected that. hope this helped, greendog.
