People didn't travel very far back in early times. Couldn't afford it........didn't like it because it was slow and uncomfortable......and it was dangerous. Guess that made sense. A few people however, did travel for business far and wide, just like today. Luggage back then was mostly the "travel trunk" (see photo). Built like a Sherman tank, it could take a knock'n and keep on rock'n. Why not....it was made of metal and built to last a lifetime. Heavy......man you don't know what heavy is!!!
You could put nine years worth of clothing in it, or a half a bale of cotton. It had some room and then some.
