Documentación turística de propiedad privada aproximación a algunas colecciones españolas

Abstract

Tourism is a sector which has its own documentation. In addition to the purely administrative one, the importance of promoting destinations and companies has generated a huge volume of material for more than a century that is a fertile and exciting space for collecting. Guides, brochures, posters, postcards, photographs or maps are some of the documents that collectors are interested in. They are a very special kind of collectors who, far from searching unique and expensive pieces, just prefer to collect paper. This article analyses the features that identify these collections and describes briefly five of them.
