Louis Vuitton Vintage French Company Monogram Speedy 30
A special piece of Louis Vuitton history, this vintage Speedy 30 is a French Company edition manufactured in the USA under special license from Louis Vuitton. During the 1970s–early 1990s era, Louis Vuitton authorized U.S. production of certain handbags to serve the growing American market; period court records confirm that Vuitton handbags were being produced by licensed U.S. manufacturers.
French Company Speedys are particularly interesting to vintage collectors because their construction differs from traditional French-made Speedys. This example retains its interior “Manufactured in the U.S.A. under special license” Louis Vuitton label, along with a Talon zipper and distinctive side locking hardware associated with these vintage editions.
