Vintage 1920s The Trinity Cruising Case Hat Box Shoe Box.
This most beautiful hat shoe case box is a very rare find.The only other one that I have found is in THE MUSEUM OF SOUTH TARANAKI NEW ZEALAND.
This beautiful case is from the 1930's and would have been used on a cruise liner for ladies hats and deck shoes.
It is lined in an original blue silk? fabric that has a watermark pattern throughout.
There are 8 Compartments for shoes and a large horseshoe shaped area for sun hats.
It is in superb original condition
It has a flat base to stand upright
But sadly no key
The case weighs..2.5 kg
Diameter....45 cms
Width to base ...43 cms
Height...29 cms
It is light enough to travel with
in this day and age and would grace any of our cruise liners.Definately a talking point as it is so rare.
The design is registered with nos 781856
Patent number...414460
It had Foreign and Colonial patents pending
The outside is a dark navy complimenting the fabulous pale blue interior.
It has 2 locks with AUTO TENSION on both locks
The sturdy handle is covered in the same material
