Description
Antique vintage arch top wooden travel trunk box made around 1920 probably. It has hard wood slats bound with brass corner brackets, bordering fabric covered panels. Two side latches at the front and a brass lock, though its catch has been sawn off at some point, no doubt due to key loss. There are various old train labels on it, one on top says Southern Railways (the pre British Rail one, you'll be glad to hear). Steel handles on the ends; the inside has been lined with paper and painted.

Barnaby's of Battle has clarified that the Antique Wooden Arch Top Railway Travel Trunk 1920s (LA510547) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being 1920s
condition
Condition is pretty good structurally: it's sound and the lid shuts fine; cosmetically there are lots of bits and pieces; scuffs and scratches and so on. The fabric is very worn and cracked, though that's rather nice; it's a bit loose here and there or worn through but not too bad. One brass corner is missing at the back. Sawn lock as mentioned already. It did have castors but they're gone. Generally charming little box though and quite useful.
