      That is an awesome trunk -- but what kind of covering is it? If it is that old than it should be leather but it looks like vinyl? (sorry it is hard to tell from the picture, just they way it seems to be cracking on the top) A ton of work went into making it. I am sure it is leather and if so then wow! I have never seen one anything like it! Thanks for the post.

      Possibly a traveling wine saleman's trunk due to the wine/spirits stickers.
      Sanchez Romate Hnos. - cherry and brandy maker

      c.v.e.s. 1900 might be a Cognac Very Extra Special - cognac spirits label
      I can only see a few labels. . . hope that helps:-)

      look up the stickers -
