Here's a limited edition challenge for the Forum. Presumed '70's Exclusivité Edition 4 (numbered series - #0098) Not looking for authentication, just history.
Questions:
What year was this produced?
What is it commemorating?
How many were in the series?
The adhesive tag damage - From the Saks 5th Ave label?
Our Louis Vuitton store here in Seattle, indicated that it might be a "French Company" bag, but It doesn't have the paper tag inside, and is stamped "made in France"... But it does utilize the Eclair brand zippers. Conundrum! They also stated that it might be a "Blois" style bag but, I've never seen a round - canteen Blois before.
Photos attached - interested in the history that is to be discovered.
Thank you in advance!
