VANDERMAN RAILROAD STEAMER TRUNK PATENTED 1897 TO SHIP CURRENCY TO BANKS.




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:37390Country/Region of Manufacture: United States
Brand: Vanderman
Original Description:
This Vanderman chest is quite nice. It weighs about 70 pounds, is constructed of sheet steel and oak. The corner braces are made of cast iron and have spaces to allow stacking with pins. The hasp is intact, most are not. I have been told the chest was used to transport currency or coin to banks all around the country, others say it is a carpenters chest, you be the judge.  It measures 37 3/4 long, 18 3/4's high and 19 wide. It appears to have been painted several times and the old... blue/green colored paint has aged nicely.  A coat of clear wax would truly bring up the color. It was found in a shed at a beach property in Delaware where it sat for many years. It would compliment any decor and would serve well as a coffee table, at the foot of a bed or anywhere a unique decorative accent is called for. It is an honest beach decor antique. Free pickup in Delaware or I can deliver it to the Crumpton Auction any Wednesday in Crumpton, Maryland. The buyer can arrange any other shipping. It is the nicest and best priced Vanderman trunk on line!
