<p>These are generally referred to as &quot; Steamer Trunks&quot; as they were often used for travel by ship, Circas 1890-1920, the flat tops allowed the stacking of trunks one on top of the other. Values for them depend on condition and maker. In the rough they generally sell at auction for under $75.00.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Lovejoy </p>
