Here I have my work cut out for me. Two jenny linds the small one I believe to be a very nice (at one time) women's dress trunk. The bandings are all brass, the bosses (or tacks) are all brass as is the lock.
The inside is lined with linen, in fair condition, also has a tray. I counted I think 68 bosses on the small trunk and 4o some on the large.
If I don't screw up they should be beautiful.
