I got my work in today. I hit three community sales by 10 o'clock first one was awful the second one was incredible and the third one I did all right. I'm not going to list everything I bought because there's a bunch but this was one of the standouts for $5!

And I was pretty shocked when I turned it over what it said on the back of it as well!

The lady was selling her and her husband's old motorcycle jackets. I got two of them for five dollars one of them is a Frank Thomas brand which I thought he was just a baseball player but I guess not! $5 each.

Has the letters L and C on some of the knobs I'm pretty sure they're 14 karat gold. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1446933413.881088.jpg

The box looks like a Gerstner & Sons Machinists tool chest.

Condition is better than the ones I recently picked up.

Do you happen to have 2 keys? I'll buy one from you.

What didja have to fork out? Not $5 I hope.

I have 0 keys. I got the phone number of the seller and she's going to look around. Plus call her aunt or sister whoever got the rest of the stuff in the house and see if she came across anything.

It is Gerstner and sons.

I bought another one of these boxes earlier in the week but the bottom was full of bugs so I had to take the whole thing out. We're gonna refurbish the Old one. And sell this newer one.

Hopefully she calls back with the keys but I won't be shocked if there's none.

I paid $150 for it.

The lock on those old machinist boxes are similar to those on a cheap set of luggage. Try some of those old luggage keys for a match.
