Steel-Bound Flat Top Steamer Trunk with W.H. Mann Marking

This lot is a steel-bound flat-top steamer trunk with reinforced metal corners and riveted leather bands, typical of travel trunks from the late 19th to early 20th century. The trunk is marked "W. H. Mann" on one side and has a central locking clasp flanked by two latches, though no key is included. The interior is lined with a patterned paper, showing wear consistent with extended use.  The exterior shows heavy scratches, scuffs, and rust, especially on the metal components. Functional and historically representative, this trunk makes for a collectible piece or restoration project. See photos for measurements, if taken.
