    I wish I knew how old this trunk is and to whom it belonged...someone with the initials J.L.W. I purchased this in Cleveland OH. There were newspapers inside dated 1909, 1911 and 1920. Intriguing.

      Does anyone have any advice on how to clean up the antique papers lining the lid? It's so dirty, and I'm afraid to touch it.
