Description

Hey! I got this footlocker at a garage sale and I was just wondering how much it's worth, so I can know if I should repurpose it or sell it. :D

It says Abel and Bach 1942 on the inside and box no. 27 of 38. If that's important? I haven't been able to find much, and I just want to know if its worth nothing and not worth getting appraised in person or if I should take it to an antiques dealer here. Thanks Pics included :D

This company was a well known maker of trunks, which like many others turned to war production During World War Two. I'm not sure if this is really a footlocker, might be a storage yrunk for any thing from ammo to gerneral supplies. We'd retail one for about $150.00
