    I picked this chest up and I am interested to see if there is anything anyone could tell me about it. The first picture has some writing on it but I can't make it out... JE BA...
    Can anyone shed some light on this mystery?

      It was typical to place the owners name on the side of a trunk... which would be the case for yours. T. E. Barse... looks like, with chests written underneath so I’ll makes the assumption he traveled with more than one. Welcome to Collectors Weekly!
