Copper strapped, Red cedar Acme Chest, Niles Michigan

Description

I got this chest given to me as payment for mowing my sisters boyfriend at the times yard when I was 16. I don’t know much about it except the brand of the cedar chest. I am interested in finding out how much it’s worth and how old it actually is. I have have it myself for 20 years now and am curious to know more about it.

This one dates from the first quarter of the 20th century, but it appears to have had it's original Veneer removed to expose the cedar. Not much value I'm afraid, we'd retail a comparable for about $150.00
