What does this sticker mean?
I'm looking at buying a gently used Avion Westport 5er. On the back there is a sticker that lists a number and underneath says "Rocky Mountain Unit". I remember seeing something similar on my grandpar...

Avion was originally started up in the 1950's with a goal to build a trailer that was better than Airstream, which was the king of the road back then. One part of competing with Airstream was to create their own owners' club, which they named "Avion Travelcade", and intended to match up with Airstream's Wally Byam club. My guess is that the sticker with a number and 'Rocky Mountain Unit' refers to the trailer's membership number and organizational unit within the "Avion Travelcade" club. Interesting history for this company, and if you are a fan of vintage trailers, a good one to get your hands on. Interesting to note that Avion offered a lifetime warranty for the original owner... not something you'd ever see today.
^^^^^^When I purchased my first 5er. a Holiday Rambler, upon registering they sent me set of numbered decals to be placed on the front which signified the numerical number it was since manufacturing began. The also registered me into the Holiday Rambler members club.
