Description: This is a Vintage 1950s Shwayder Bros Samsonite Train / Overnight Case style 4612 with original KEY. It is described by Shwayder Brothers Inc, Denver, Colorado as a Saddle Brown Leather Hardcase. Measurements are 13" wide x 8" deep x 9" tall. This case was part of a set given to my parents as a wedding gift in 1955. A religious man, Shwayder named one of his initial cases Samson, after the Biblical strongman, and began using the trademark in 1941 for its tapered vulcanized fiber suitcase introduced in 1939. In 1965, after the Samsonite suitcase became its best selling product, the company changed its name to Samsonite. (Wikipedia) The ad photo is from Wikipedia also. Happy to answer any questions
