  4. From reading about the tobacco company I believe they were just and only that, tobacco. They made back then 4 million dollars a year with tobacco. I doubt they went into the trunk business but just ...
  5. Heres a snip-it from Drill, which he posted regarding my 20th century MM there is more on that pages as well of life after 1900. During the mid-twenties, production automobile body manufacturers lo...
  6. As far as being used after that....seeing how the place was burned out & more than likely the labels as well, and as he moved, I doubt very much this particular prolific business man would advertise h...
  7. Not sure which label came first but this is a snip-it about the company for the 1873 date. (The trio built a business block on 55 Monroe Avenue, each occupying one-third of the block. The joint com...

  15. Thanks Brian and Bigd338, Yes for sure to much black, I think he used a spray bomb but didn't sand it or clean it first. You can see the blotchy areas more concentrated to the bottom on the back an...

  23. Thanks for the love Trunkman. A key is always a bonus, my personal selection is getting low and is getting tougher to find a bingo. Plus these locks have a very large hole in the end of the key whic...

  28. Thanks Damon, I did hit a run of the nice early trunks which are not posted very often up here. Then all of a sudden several. I didn't really have any from this era that had real merit, just my squ...
  29. Thanks for the love !! Newfld AntigueToys oldpeep & fortapache Its always a pleasure to share any interesting example from the days gone by.
  30. Thanks fortapache, It is certainly different isn't it and original to the trunk. That plus the matching cast iron I had to have it. Thanks for the comment. I think Brian and some others have been ver...
  31. Thanks Newfld, That's what I thought as well. Its really the hardware that makes or breaks a trunk. This one is very consistent with the all cast iron being its main predominant feature and it shows...
  32. Very cool and Interesting Canadian Label drill. The end banding is quit unique, if its a true representation of how this company did their trunks. Thanks for another great label!
  33. Great going there Watchsearcher. I find photos not correct for anything simply cannot be viewed properly. There a beautiful Martin Maier on here with the main image vertical. I copied it to my desk...
  34. You got me on that one, I don't use an Ipad. Maybe turn the picture incorrect on the Ipad and try an upload again. Maybe it will turn it correct?? Weird why it would turn a photo by itself.
  35. I would say it has the same fluid-ness and feel to that of a bed sheet. Yes different for sure.
  36. Very smart looking trunk SamKat!! For that rustic charm, it doesn't get much better! This a before and after? Looks like it was covered in leather or are the pale spots from scratches through the pr...
  37. Great trunk! Great to see all the leather and its patterns. Its the same shape style as my last one. Also kind of different seeing that slight rolled outside edge on the banding. On my last one wit...
  38. Curious...You couldn't attack those nails from the inside or is the interior still intact.
  39. Hey Thanks Jim, Night owls..lol Thanks so much for the input I'll fix that!! Oil cloth who would have guessed that. I can certainly tell it is of a different nature fabric. I have a couple of my o...
