      Wondering if it wasn't part of the Adams Express Co. Although not locating specifically named division of Adams World Wide Moving

      Nice find! Based on the lock and the hardware, I'd say at least 1940 or later. Hopefully, another trunk enthusiast will drop in give a better date on this.

      That's exactly what I was thinking scotty, 40's or 50's, greendog.
