Samsonite Silhouette 3-Piece Vintage Luggage Set – Suitcase, Carry-On & Train Case
Offered here is a vintage Samsonite Silhouette 3-piece luggage set, showcasing the brand’s classic mid-century design. The set includes: one hard shell suitcase with original key, one coordinating carry-on bag (strap absent), and one navy hard shell train case (key absent). All three pieces feature textured vinyl exteriors in teal or navy, chrome-tone trim, and molded Samsonite handles. Interiors are lined in pale blue fabric with elastic compartments and pockets, each marked with the original Samsonite Silhouette label (Samsonite Corporation, Denver).
This model line, introduced in the mid-20th century, was prized for its durable construction and stylish modern look, making it a popular choice among travelers of the 1960s and 70s. A charming retro set ideal for collectors, décor, or prop use.

Overall condition is consistent with age and use. Surfaces show scratches, scuffing, rust/oxidation, and finish wear/loss.
