Description
Railway Express Agency Agent Wooden Trunk w/ Contents This lot is truly a time capsule in every sense of the word. Railway Express Agency agent truck measuring 33" x 18" x 18" painted red and stenciled on the ends with 220555 and RY EX AGY on the front in black paint. The interior is a snap shot of the last day that this trunk was used in service. There is a newspaper dated January 14th 1968 which we assume is the last day this was used in service. The contents of the trunk includes everything an Railway Express Agency agent would need for a normal day. There are numerous types of Railway Express Agency paperwork, and Railway Express Agency sign, envelopes, log books, cloth bags, and more. Some of the more unique items include an Railway Express Agency marked hatchet, original packets of antacid, paper back books from the 1960's and plenty of soap and other toiletries. It's unusual to find something like this so complete. For the Railway Express Agency collector, going through this trunk will yield layer upon layer of treasures and interesting information. The trunk weighs easily 100 pounds and will need to travel via third party shipment. See photos for best description.
