Inside the lid is painted, a Stars n Stripes and a Red Ensign above a scroll that contains the words WEYB John Holland OURN
Beautiful chest with 19th century chart of the Entrance of the Sound of the Mull inside the lid.
Best points include; the teak, brass-edged, lids to internal shelf compartments, stunning. The touching keyhole plaque fashioned into the shape of a heart, withe the name A.Anderson engraved, most probably commissioned for the sailor by his sweetheart...
....inside the lid of this chest is an atlas published in Melbourne around the turn of the century and a picture of SS Waratah, Australias Titanic
