Antique German Monogrammed Flat-Top Cabin Steamer Trunk c.1910

An early 20th-century flat-top cabin steamer trunk crafted by the renowned F. Waldbaur Koffer & Lederwarenfabrik of Stuttgart, Germany. Built for luxury transcontinental rail or steamship voyages, the trunk features a warm, honey-tan exterior accented by leather trim, hand-painted black pinstripe borders and the bold, personalized owner's initials "H. G." on the lid. Supported by sturdy wooden reinforcement slats, heavy metallic rivets, thick leather handles and and robust brass locking clasps, this trunk is as solidly built.

When opened, the interior reveals its original canvas/linen lining. The inside lid features an intact geometric layout of pink packing ribbons secured by brass studs, along with its original manufacturer's paper label remains affixed directly beneath the lid. Lift out tray with original canvas straps.
