It is black metal, having what appears to be a leather bordering all around the edges, with the interior being wood, covered with a white paper lining. This trunk was also on wheels. What did catch my eye was the fact that it did not have the conventional easy to pick lock, most trunks have, this one having a Yale lock. The only identifying marks on the trunk are on the lock itself &quot; The Yale &amp; Towne manufacturing co. and a number 438.</p><p>Looking up the Yale &amp; Towne website that logo looks to be early 1900&#039;s ??</p><p>I know we have some trunk afficienados here, so fly at it. Any help on date or maker would be helpful.</p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
