An Old Cockney Remembers His Trunk

When I first stumbled across the circus clown trunk, I stopped in my tracks. The red-nosed clown staring upside down across the front felt like more than decoration. It felt like a piece of a lost world — a travelling circus. Chests aren’t just wooden boxes. They’re time capsules. Before suitcases rolled through airports, trunks were the way people travelled. Built solid, heavy duty, sometimes decorated with brass corners or painted lettering.

I can’t forget when the circus came to town once a year. Posters glued to walls promised elephants, fire breathers, acrobats — and always clowns. Looking at the vintage trunk (his explanation) feels like it was there backstage, stuffed with costumes and props, waiting for the show to begin.
