It is a flat top trunk made by one of the popular makers of the time period. It was made by the Drucker trunk Company in the early 1900s thru the 1920's They had many patents for their hardware.They were made by the thousands as this was one of the larger manufacturers.
Here are a few links to images of their types of similar Hardware. Thanks for the post.

Not a steamer trunk, steamer trunks were a specific size and shape usually in the 30 to 38 inch long range and no more then 14 inches in height so they could fit under the bunks in a steamer ship as space was limited, all other trunks are travel trunks.
