garage sale find

went to a garage sale at the end of my grandparents street yesterday. they had a bunch of old things and random chairs and stuff. the best thing there though was this HUGE trunk sittin in the driveway. it was beautiful it was all lined with green paper and still had the box that sits inside. and i love that old smell. when you thumb thru an old book and inhale the scent from the paper. that smell. bought it for $10...i really wanted to know if there was a story behind that trunk. all the guy told me was that he thought it was prb 100yrs old or so..now its part of our family-to store blankets and handmade doilies from grandma...
