Beautiful old chest
My great grandmother left me this old chest it was made by STAR LOCK WORKS pat. in March of 1860. The lithograph is still in perfect condition it has what she called a jewelry box that is still in perfect working condition with a picture of a young girl above it. It is a rounded top large size chest; looks like tin, with wood strapping and X's and hearts riveted into the tin all around the chest. The only thing missing is the leather carrying straps that were on each side. How much do you think it would it be worth?
Curious,
in TN.
