1939 De Soto luggage locker has increased capacity

The Streamline Luggage Locker in the new 1939 De Soto, which eliminates the old-fashioned trunk “bustle,” has 23 cubic feet of usable trunk space, 27 percent more than the big trunk on the 1938 De Soto models. Fitting right into the smooth flowing contours of De Soto’s new streamline styling, the luggage locker is completely concealed. It is equipped with an anti-theft lock.
