“A fond memory I have from living in London in the 60’s is seeing Rock & Rollers come and go by plane, limos and tour buses carrying their guitar cases.
When living in Rome I also remember vast numbers of men and women of God, coming and going on their missions.
In those days people were very experimental even with spirituality.
The cross travel case would have been a perfect accessory for all those religious gurus on tour, complete with the ubiquitous groupies.”
