Really cool item.

Where's the contents?
 

Too generic for me. The ones in the teams colors, and brand with the team name stencilled on the side are for me. I WOULD be interested in the equipment that was in the trunk though: jersey, bat, glove, balls, spikes, cap?
No doubt this is authentic, but how hard would it be for someone to primatively hand paint (like this) that info on any old generic trunk for say Ty Cobb?

Fake??
 

As an antique dealer/auction house manager-The trunk is age appropriate however I have never witnessed a trunk marked on the side-always on top or front. I believe the stencil was added after the fact as well as the leather handles. As always its tough without a first hand inspection.....

It's back....
 

under a new seller now and from $700 to $2900, if u missed out in Oct., you'll definitely want to miss out now.
