Vintage Mid Century Gentleman’s Suitcase
This fabulous vintage suitcase is a classic example of what was often called a “gentleman’s suitcase.” It is an early to mid-20th century piece with a sturdy leather trim and cloth exterior. The initials “J.M.C.G.” are embossed on the top, suggesting it was custom-made for its original owner, which was a common practice for higher-end luggage during that time.
Designed and from a period when traveling trunks and cases were crafted with quality leather and fabric materials. Cleghorns in Princess Street, Edinburgh was known as a quality leather goods retailer in during that era.
Such suitcases were built to last, with durable handles, locks, and reinforced corners, reflecting a time when luggage was meant to be an investment piece.
Overall very good vintage condition. Clean, functional.
