<p>[QUOTE="Rufus Shinra, post: 849031, member: 11709"]Hello, I have this wooden suitcase and on the center latch it says Eagle Lock Co. Terryville Conn. The top part opens up, swing on the two hinges in the middle of the box, and there is a wood drawer that slides out on the bottom, not sure if it’s suppose to be a hidden drawer?</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, I wanted to know if this wood box had a specific purpose because it seems like it’s specifically designed, or was it just a regular suitcase? I think it’s from late 1800s or early 1900s. It’s locked so I have to try and jimmy the lock to open up the top part.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any idea what it was designed for?
