Inside are the parts and informationyou need to design the perfect case
for your particular needs.
The tools Benjamin Platt used are now onlyhistoric mementos. He used them as he becamethe first of three generations of Platts to serve busi-ness travelers and intrepid vacationers. 90-someyears have passed since he reached Ellis Island,USA, in 1904, fleeting the Czar’s heavy-handed ser-geants, escaping his involuntary military service toa new life in the New World.
He found it was not a difficult change fromcutting leather for Cossack saddle harnesses toshaping fine cowhides into sturdy suitcases andstylish bags. His new creations were well-suited toendure the rough handling that 1920-era tripsentailed. Rough roads, rougher treatment were thenorm.
If he were to see our plant today, GrandfatherBenjamin might regret that we no longer use hisreliable leather. But he would quickly appreciatethe new materials we use, and understand thattoday’s tough, well-designed cases do just what hisearly leather luggage did... serve, protect, survive.
We’re the company that introduced thefirst combination locks on luggage.
And the first cushioned handles...The first to use our own hardware...The first to mold bowling bags from plastic...The first to mold plastic end shells on catalog cases, a
technology breakthrough at the time...The first to mold a urethane pallet...We’ve evolved through several storefronts near the
tanning plants, through a manufacturing plant near theMcCormick Place Convention Center to today’s presentlocation near Chicago’s Midway Airport, convenient for ourout-of-town customers.
We don’t build them like they used to.We build them better.

Polyethylene can be stored in any environ-ment from -40o to 140o, and is unaffected by
all common industrial solvents. Plus, ourbent aluminum continuous framing systemprovides the ultimate in strength, andattractive appearance. Our valance systemhas a gasket for water/dust resistance.Platt uses completely recessed hardwarewhich further resists damage in transit, andcan be furnished with
