<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tontique, post: 321507, member: 6548&quot;][ATTACH=full]106994[/ATTACH] Hi Everybody,</p><p>I&#039;m new and in transition (moved from Fl to CO and now renovating CO house, all within in 3 weeks). Its given me time to figure out what I really need unload. Sadly, this trunk is something that needs to go. I&#039;m pretty familiar with old trunks, but this one has me stumped. It has an almost crystalized tin exterior, very thin slats and metal handles. The person I bought it from said it was her great great grandmothers and thought it belonged to a relative in the civil war, but my understanding is they didn&#039;t waste metal on trunks during that time as they needed it for weapons. It also has a painted number on the side. Any ideas? It needs a lot of work, but the inside is completely original paper lining and has two drawers that come out making 5 different compartments. I appreciate any help. Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
