Luggage Labels:
And the Golden Age of Travel
by Harold Darling
The Golden Age of Travel occured between 1890 and the outbreak of World War II.
In this period wonderful hotels abounded, and the various modes of transport reached their glorious apogee.
The labels which were placed on luggage by railroads, steamships or hotels beautifully capture the spirit of the era.
Our boxed set contains a booklet by Harold Darling on this time and its labels, and forty facsimiles of remarkable labels, each die-cut and self-adhesive.
They can be used for a near infinitude of decorative purposes, including the enrichment of one's luggage.
From the Publisher
40 self-adhesive luggage labels and a booklet on their history by Blue Lantern Books.
