Abstract
A resilient U-shaped steel band has its upper ends adjustably attached by means of slotted angle irons to a rigid saddle composed of a panel of fiberboard and a strip of plywood secured thereto. A bottom plate overlies the horizontal section of the band. Fabric sheet material constitutes the outer cover for the luggage being stitched to the fiberboard. A relatively heavy fabric belt is stitched to the cover along the edges of the band, thereby providing a sheath for the band and preventing transverse shifting thereto.
