the first time I saw any type of frame carriers was when I became familiar with the Buffalo Soldiers when they made their remarkable journey from Montana to St Louis, I believe the compartments they used were a hard type of case though by the looks of them. maybe fomed out of tin or something.

Before you judge a man, try walking a mile in his shoes. That way when you do judge him you'll be a mile away and have his shoes.
