What is it? A vase? Magazine holder? Mail holder?

Category
Pottery
Description

This representation of the Prince discovering Sleeping Beauty has been in our family for at least three generations. However, we do not know exactly what it is.

The area behind the Sleeping Beauty scene is large enough to hold a folded newspaper or several magazines. Is that its purpose? We do not know.

One of the photos shows the potter's mark on the bottom, which appears to be a very ornate "G," "&" and maybe an "H"? Really not clear enough to read with accuracy, but there's clearly an upside down crescent above the letters.

Any guesses? We have no idea.

Condition
Good
Description

"PC Murphy Trunk Company" St. Louis, MO
with "Eagle Lock Co" Terryville, Conn. U.S.A. Lock Hardware

Upright wardrobe Steamer or Salesman’s Trunk

Measuring 60"H x 23"W x 32"D
Fully Arched Top
Two hinged latched and central lock
4 large hinges down back

Wooden shelves nailed into interior by Nuns’ Handyman many years ago…

Missing leather straps and center locking bars were also snapped off by said handyman.

I’ve used it as bookshelves and an art supplies cabinet since I found and bought it at age 14… coming up on 50 now… (so, purchased in about 1987).

I’ve always been curious about its origin and details of value, etc.

It’s been a part of my life most of my life…
