B66-223 TOOL CHEST. 38" by 19" and 21" high. Elaborate brass strapping on the outside, original latches and two handles on each end. The inner lid has extensive decorative inlay. The lettering is very ornate and hard to decipher, but it looks like "J.F. McNeil", "Victor, Colo" and "March 8, 1899." Gold was discovered in Victor in 1894 and the city became a center of Colorado mining; this chest made its way to the West Coast so may have originated in Colorado. Three lift out and four sliding trays; edges of the chest and the trays have inlaid work as well. Some wear, but overall in very good condition; an exceptionally attractive chest with a history. From the collection of Jim and Christa Schoenky. Good+ 600-1200
