|  Nice Brass Bound Jenny Lind Trunk.
This is a great little Jenny Lind that was made during the mid 19th Century. It was built about the time the the Swedish singer of the same name (also known as the Swedish Nightengale) was touring this country with PT Barnum. These trunks were all the rage and were made for a period of about 10 years. Because they were expensive and difficult to make very few of them were made and fewer still survive.
It's an excellent size for holding small keepsakes or family pictures. We have finished this trunk with our durable and tough sealer and it will last for at least another 150 years or so.
It's a nice trunk with the rare brass banding. It also has the original working lock and fancy brass lockplate. Trunks like this were made by George Molloy in Lowell, Massachusetts around the mid 19th century.
