This was the first time we have a stand with all our cases in every size and colour on display, and what a differance it made. A real show stopper! Even those buyers, not interested in luggage, were drawn by our colourful designs and images, and everybody fell in love with "the Cuties and pals".

Our full range was on display for the first time, and got plenty of re-action from buyers and passers by alike. The canny Scots took advantage of placing orders on the day, and getting last years prices, which resulted in us selling out of the Scottish rampant lion (pictured left with Suzanne, Maureen and the King of Scotland!) Celtic and Rangers cases proved equally popular, as did the "Cuties and pals"! http://www.picturecase.co.uk/news/scots-love-picture-case/ Mon, 01 Feb 2010 00:00:00 GMT We will be exhibiting at The Scotland Trade Fair 24th-26th January and will be offering a special deal to all buyers who place an order with us for stock at the show.
