Samsonite Streamlite Train Case by Schwayder Bros of Denver

This is my favorite line of vintage luggage. Samsonite "Streamlite" was manufactured from 1941-1955, by the Schwayder Bros of Denver. This piece is the "Train Case" in classic Samsonite color "Saddle Brown." The exterior of the case is in great vintage condition. Endcap stitching is in tact, hardware is in working order, and the handle has no hairline cracks (common to these pieces). Lock works and key is included. The interior is in fair condition. There are several tears to the vinyl lining, and the cosmetic tray is missing. Mirror is in tact but exhibits silver loss as expected for age.

Measurements: 13" Width, 8 1/2" Height, 8" Depth.

Vintage Condition: Fair
