Chicago Cubs William Wrigley Jr. Personal Traveling Trunk C.1912 *SOLD*
Mr. William Wrigley Jr., Owner of Chicago Cubs and Wrigley Gum Company, personally owed Innovation traveling trunk (circa 1912).
Trunk is surprising extremely good condition inside. Has original hangers, drawers still open without any troubles. Inside hanger sleeve comes out without any issues as well.
Outside has some condition issue, but of course was used on the road and is 103 years old. Leather has dried out, hand strap broken but ends are still attached. Trunk was shipped to L.A. and even has the shipping company's old, outdated format phone number. The other is a Waldorf Astoria sticker, which Wrigley had a hand in building. That sticker is actually no longer attached and just laying on top of the trunk.
Dimensions are 22" wide x 22" deep x 46" high. Weighs 102 lbs.
Very cool piece of Cubs history.
Listening to offers for sell/or and trade
SOLD
