The Louis Vuitton 'The Art of Travel Through Hotel Labels' is captivating.
The product is a collection of 30 vintage hotel labels reproduced from Gaston-Louis Vuitton's private collection of over 3000 old hotel tags. Some of the pieces included in The Art of Travel Through Hotel Labels set refer to still-existing luxury hotels, like the Hotel de la Mamounia in Marrakesh, the Bristol Hotel in Cairo or the Hotel du Cap d'Antibes in France.
Gaston-Louis Vuitton states, "Ancient countries and civilizations will be recalled on these pieces of paper; could they be attractive enough to make you want to collect them and maybe seven set off a journey yourself?"
This is a truly inspiring book for travel and Louis Vuitton fanatics.
