AMERICAN TOURISTER: GORILLA
{GRACE & ROTHSCHILD ADVERTISING REEL}

Summary

In this commercial for American Tourister luggage, a suitcase is placed inside a gorilla's cage to prove how durable it is. No matter how hard the gorilla tries, it can't even put a dent in an American Tourister suitcase. Meanwhile, the announcer reads an open letter to all of the world's clumsy bellboys, ruthless porters and butter-fingered luggage handlers. "Have we got an American Tourister for you!," he says.
