This is an early Samsonite suitcase.  The antique Samson luggage with the Shwayder Trunk Mfg Co label dates the luggage from 1916 - 1931.  It is a large black case with leather reinforced corners and silver tone metal hardware. The interior has a blue and red lining.  Samson luggage were high quality high end trunks that promoted how strong they were with a photo of the 5 Shwayder brothers standing atop a suitcase (that can be seen on their logo).
