AAntique Trunk ,J.R. Hughes & Co. standard flat top trunk. The original canvas has been freshly painted a light olive color that is similar to what would have been seen back in its day. This trunk measures a good size 34"L X 23"H X 21"W and offers a true flat surface on the top. curious of value and want to sell.
These are generically referred to as "Steamer trunks", after the fact they were often used for ocean travel on steamship prior to World War One. These travel trunks were also used for train and overland travel as well. The flat top type were produced mainly after the turn of the 19th Century, but remain in production to this day. Value, well at asuction similar trunks often sell for less than $100.00
