Very rare to find an early steamer trunk with both trays intact.
A little bit of history about this glamorous traveler.

Good vintage condition with identifying initials, storage labels, and, as was typical in the days of early steamship travel, the case has identifying painted stripes to the exterior canvas; no key; small losses to wood at front bottom; allover wear and soiling expected with age and travel.
