Travelling Chest "100 Years"
This is the travelling chest which I mentioned in one of my blog earlier. This travelling chest also called as the trunk. This trunk normally used to carry personal belongings for travelling. This trunk was made from England and it is shown on it. The age of this trunk believed to be more than 100 years old. The first picture on the left you can see the newspaper imprint, used to be a layer to protect the clothes from getting dust or rust and the you can see the imprint it is dated May 11 1907. On the top of the trunk, we can see there is some Tamil writings. This travelling chest was bought in Penang from an owner.
