- This little trunk measures 14” w X 8” D x 8” H and was purchased in Middleburgh, NY. It’s hard to tell if this little trunk was made for a child or what was its original purpose. Trunks of this type are hard to find today because they were made with such thin wood and are broken or ruined quite easily.
- It was originally covered with paper which has been stripped down to the pine beneath. It has been sanded and finished with two coats of polyurethane. The trim and hardware has been painted satin black. The lock is original although no key is available. The handles have been replaced. Two chains have been installed as a lid stop.
- The inside was scraped, cleaned and sealed with an odor blocking primer. It has been lined with fiberfill and dark blue floral fabric and coordinating sparkle blue fabric.
This would make a nice gift for a girl or boy – ideal for Barbie and her clothes, or matchbox cars!
