Question about the original LV print

[Cons game]

I know that the original print was the ebene but does anyone know what the trim was back in the 1800's? It doesn't seem possible that the Trim they now use would have been round at the time, the only pics I've seen on old movies always showed the monogram.

Damier Ebene handbags are of course from the modern period, not like the damier print itself. So, there is no direct comparison with old leather trim.

Here's an early trunk:
