    Bottom of this old trunk has been replaced. The rest seems original, except for some interior finish/paint or stain. Anyone able to place a date range on this?

      I would think mid 1800s to maybe early 1900s is about right, but that’s only a rough guess. Hopefully this gets the ball rolling and one of the trunk experts on this site will weigh in with more specific and reliable information
