ROOS Cedar Chest

Description I bought this at a yard sale and didn't want to start refinishing until I know what I have here. I know they were produced up to 1951 but thats all I really know about them. It has the plaquard and a couple of brandings inside the cover. It also has the number 4200 on the bottom. The base is detachable, fastened with wing nuts. The chest box dimensions are 46-3/8" x 17-3/4". It has a colorized, embosed coat of arms on the front that looks to be leather or a very dense paper. I would also love to find a key for it if anyone can help with that as well.
