    A lovely high end all leather covered trunk with beautiful hardware. Normally most leather is rotted with these over time... this must have been stored in a damp place as the hardware was all rusted but the leather was still intact. Beautiful original double leather lifts with original leather handles. Hope you enjoy!

      One has to love the over sized and volume of trim on this trunk..I have two of these and for sure they are in the top favorites of mine. Did it have special handle caps like the one of mine? Great find for sure Trunkman!! I am sure you were thrilled to get the opportunity to take it home .
