Narrative:
I found placards missing on the aircraft. I do not know the exact verbiage of these placards; but I could see they used to be there and also observed others on the plane in similar locations. At least one in first class lavatory on the under-sink/trash container door (appeared to be the 'trash container must be installed' placard based on what I saw in the other lavatories). There may have been more than one missing; I am not sure. Also noticed 2L had 6 placards/decals missing from the slide pack. I compared this door to all 3 other doors each of these had 6.
