Description: | London has long attracted visitors from around the world. This guidebook was produced by the Residential Hotel Keepers? and Caterers? Association. As with many other guidebooks of this period, its primary purpose is to advertise its producers? services to tourists. However, in addition to this, it is also clearly designed to raise revenue by the sale of advertising to other companies (such as Daimler Hire Ltd.). Also of note here is the use of a picture of the Tower of London as an image of London on the front cover. This clearly shows the type of attractions which were popular at the time. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Bishopsgate Institute | Rights holder: | Unknown Copyright | Subjects: | Leisure | Temporal: | 1923 | Source: | Bishopsgate Institute | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
