Title: Cattnach Trunk Question
Post by: kinney on July 19, 2012, 11:15:58 am

I found this trunk last week and have been doing some research on finding the value of this trunk and have not had much luck. I found most of the history of the trunk mfg, business locations and narrowed down approx years where it moved from one location to another. I attached 3 pictures and can provide more of the actual trunk which seems to be good in very good condition for its age! Hopefully someone can give or direct me to find a little more information:
Popularity\Rarity of this trunk?
Value of this trunk?

Thanks in advance for your help and comments

No way to tell value without seeing the entire trunk !!

I just realized, this may not be a trunk made by him. It could have been imported.
