Well, these trunks caught my eye. They made me think about the days that people travelled on the European Grand Tour, journeyed by train or boat, had "help" to pack (and unpack) their clothes and most definitely did not have to carry them themselves. I love the romanticism evoked by the old school travel that these trunks could have ventured upon.
And of course, the dolls travelled in style too!

I remember one of the trunks your Dad and I collected -a steamer trunk
ReplyDeletedark green with studs with room for a Top Hat and little drawers for collars and studs etc -think those were the days when you had someone unpack this after the long voyage to India ! Still love your school trunks and tuck box even if they are now used to store quilts etc xx
I wonder if people still buy tuck boxes to go to school with? Love mine, and you have quite a collection of trunks yourself! xx
