This handsome steamer trunk is inscribed with the initials E.M.J. If this trunk could talk, what tales would it tell?
Prior to the 1950s, international travel was mainly by sea. Was this trunk winched onto a majestic ocean liner to set sail for the far corners of the globe? Didthe adventure start in New Zealand or just end here?
Perhaps you know who E.M.J may be?
Were they travelling for business or pleasure? Which exotic lands were visited and what wonderful things were seen?
Perhaps E.M.J had experiences that would shape the rest of their life? They may have fallen in love. They may have had their heart broken. Maybe they discovered something that would prove to be a turning point in their life? Perhaps they arrived in New Zealand with something special locked away in their trunk?
Although the trunk is empty now, it may be full of fond memories for the rightful owner.
