    A while back I was lucky enough to come across this fabulous trunk. The man I bought it from had heard from the previous owner that it had originally come out of a brothel in San Francisco. I imagine that it holds some interesting secrets! The interior is in exceptionally good condition, and all the original leather pulls are almost like-new. The lithographs are all in quite exceptional condition. Its a pretty exciting addition to my growing collection!

    Thanks for looking!

      Well it's about time Damon ! we've talked about this one before, I know you had it for a while, this is one at the top of my list, I looked at this one many times when it was for sale, just to far away for me, beautiful trunk with super interior, doesn't come much better than this, love everything about it, all decked out with Romadka signature hardware, If this one ever needs a home, I'm willing to adopt.

      Great find, wonderful to see you get it Big D. Amazed that interior survived ( I don't have much luck ever finding that).
      The leather lock cover and strap are almost never present. It's as complete as you will ever find.Thanks for the post.

      Not Sure why or how I missed this one at the time ...great trunk as well!! You have an excellent starting ensemble!! The leather lock cover and strap are great to see still present, as Drill mention. Remember once you start you can't stop..lol Like that chip commercial on TV, "bet you can't just have one"
