Non work related (for me), but I thought someone on here might have some information.

I have an acquaintance who inherited an old trunk on his grandfather's passing. He is simply curious about the history. It is a simple, flat top, black foot locker, with brass hardware. No internal label. The lock has H.E. & L.Works Harrison, N.J. stamped around the key hole. I know Harrison was a huge manufacturing hub, once upon a time, but I have little else for knowledge.
