NO SHIPPING ~ LOCAL PICKUP ONLY > Great for upcycling, restoration, a vintage youth sized footlocker measuring approximately 32" long × 17" tall × 13" deep, constructed with galvanized metal panels over a wood framed body and reinforced by aged metal edging, corner caps, straps, hinges, and latches exhibiting a warm brass and brown patina. The exterior has been personalized with colorful green, blue, and yellow flower decorations. A damaged leather carrying handle remains at the front, with additional end handles appearing intact. The hinged lid opens to a spacious interior lined with bright period wrapping paper printed with large stylized flowers, strengthening the cheerful 1960s to 1970s youth decor character.

The strong rectangular form also provides possibilities for decorative restoration or creative upcycling.
