Polish lock box

By autumnangel8701, 27 April, 2008
Description

There is a paper tag glued to the bottom of the truck that is in all Polish. At the top it says "spoldzielnia rzemieslnicza drzewiarz" Which I think is the company, also it says "krakow" which must be the city it was manufactured in- then below it says "kuferek" which in Polish means "trunk". It is a lock box, with the key still intact and can easily open and lock still. It really is absolutley beautiful with what looks like hand engraving and painting. If anyone can help with a price it sure would be appreciated! Thanks :)
