Description

My trunk has the following numbers stamped on the bottom 005 and C32 . It is 40" long 14 1/2" deep and 12" tall.It has a small sticker - label on the inside of lid that is 2" wide X 1" tall that reads "CASWELLl-RUNYAN CO. MEANS QUALITY and what I think says Hunnington on the bottom part of sticker, I can not see anything but the H on the bottom of sticker I assume it said Hunnington, not 100% sure as that part of sticker is not readable. I will take pictures of the sticker along with other pictures of the chest.

Thanks, Mark
