Stuck onto trunks and luggage, these\u003cbr\u003elabels admittedly had an advertising objective but also created\u003cbr\u003ethe desire to travel the world, as well as providing information\u003cbr\u003eon the journeys and detours made by the owner of said trunk.\u003cbr\u003eSome would read into the way the labels were stuck onto the\u003cbr\u003eluggage a code allowing hotel staff to communicate with each\u003cbr\u003eother and to indicate the value of the customer in terms of tips.\u003cbr\u003eIn this way, there is said to have been a secret language of hotel\u003cbr\u003elabels; bellboys and porters labelled the traveller both literally\u003cbr\u003eand figuratively: « very generous », « bad », « unpleasant but\u003cbr\u003egood », « beginner not used to travelling » or even « unpleasant\u003cbr\u003eleech », if we are to believe a well-informed newspaper article\u003cbr\u003efrom that period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLouis Vuitton publishes 30 postcards reproducing 30 hotel labels\u003cbr\u003efrom its private collection. Presented in an elegant boxed set,\u003cbr\u003eeach postcard equally evokes the art of travel and the great ho-\u003cbr\u003etels of the world, from the Plazza Athénée in Paris to the Astor\u003cbr\u003eHouse in Shanghai. Louis Vuitton thus pays tribute to this lost tra-\u003cbr\u003edition which consisted in sticking hotel labels on the trunks and\u003cbr\u003eluggage of passing travellers.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFREE EXPRESS SHIPPING\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSHIPS WITHIN 24HR.","brand":"Louis Vuitton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44345795346495,"sku":null,"price":172.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/4164\/9215\/files\/static-f84dc5fa-f4e8-4597-b37e-aad958b93423_6f2ffdb9-4a70-4823-97d7-bea5ab69c471.jpg?v=1793354878","url":"https:\/\/provenance.shop\/en-ca\/products\/%f0%9f%94%b4-hotel-label-sticker-postcard-taj-taj-5","provider":"PROVENANCE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
