The following photos are of the trunk that was on my 1932 Special Deluxe Sedan when I bought it 7 years ago. I realize that it is not a 1932 accessory [and fortunately have just found a proper 1932 Potter trunk to replace it]. I am curious to know what year or years it would have been offered as an accessory. I rather like the bow tie emblem on the front panel. These shots show the exterior and interior.

Looks similar to a "KariKeen" I have for my '29 Conv landau. Instead of sliding out like yours appears to do it folds out to a similar size. Maybe they made different models?

There are similarities, especially in the latches and stainless corner trim. Still, I am inclined to think mine is a Potter variant, since its footprint is precisely the same as a Chevy Potter, the bolt holes for mounting on the frame are exactly the same, and other similarities.
