Released with a hinged lid in 1993, modified to have a lift-off lid in 2007, retired in 2012. Both versions are reviewed in this thread.
Hinged lid: Keep Addy along with all her clothes and accessories in this beautiful wooden trunk trimmed with sturdy black hobnails and finished with bentwood handles. It’s lined inside with reproductions of Civil War newspapers. Your Addy doll fits in the removable tray on top. There’s lots of storage space in the bottom—even a secret compartment where you can hide Addy’s most special treasures! A true keepsake for today, tomorrow, and always.
Lift-off lid: Girls can protect their Addy doll, her clothes, and accessories inside this beautiful wooden trunk trimmed with sturdy black hobnails and finished with bentwood handles. Addy's trunk is lined with reproductions of Civil War newspapers and includes a secret compartment to hide special treasures. The lid conveniently lifts off to access the removable tray and the ample storage space located at the bottom.
W: 23" x H: 12" x D: 11"
I would rate Addy's trunk an A+++.
This trunk is 23 inches in length by 11 1/2 inches in height. It is made of wood, but has a "shellaced" appearance. The trunk has metal edging and metal "buttons' around the sides and top which give it a nice authentic look. The wood on our trunk is a light wood similiar in appearance to a very light oak. It is actually lighter than the pictures on the website show it to be. The top of the trunk is level so you can stack another trunk on top, unlike some of the other trunks like Josefina's. The sides of the trunk have leather handles for easy lifting.
Inside the trunk, has a wooden tray that you can use to store smaller objects in. The tray has a carved out hole on each side to put your fingers when oulling out the tray. The top of the trunk has a replica of a page from a newspaper from the Civil War era. The paper is actually more like wallpaper instead of actual paper consistency. Once you take the tray out, the bottom area of the trunk is nice. It is divided in half by another piece of wood. The bottom of the trunk has another newspaper replica. The trunk is pretty large and like Kirsten's and Josefina's they carry a lot, but Addy's whole collection will not fit in the trunk.
I haven't had a chance to take pictures, but I'll try to add some later.
