I just moved into a prewar apartment. There's an long iron box hung on the wall with a drawstring extending under it. It seems it could be opened from one side but was stuck by the white paint. I asked the super what it is, but he had no idea at all. Does anyone know what the box was for?

  1. Is it styled like the old flush tanks toilets used to have over them? That's my guess.


  2. You might have discovered a antique, If you are really curious why not remove the paint and open the box who knows what might be in it. a treasure even. I know if I had found it I would be very curious indeed . best of luck, I just hope it's not Pandoras box. Alex
