Trunk Tale
Provenance This trunk came with Lena and Oscar Olsen on their voyage to the US from Sweden. The exact date unknown but before 1913. They gave it to my Grandmother Daisy Hale 7 miles from Linden Colorado. In 1947 my grandmother packed my my mother's wedding presents and mailed them to her in Manhattan, Kansas. In 1971 my mother Ruby Finkner gave it to me. At that time it was covered in navy green painted canvas.
