Similar to our 1961 issue (8500.000) but the colors vary slightly and the airline routes are fewer, indicating the constant expansion of the Air France net work at this time. A vibrantly colored and exquisitely illustrated planisphere showing an elongated terrestrial globe with Air France routes in white, surrounded by a richly decorated border of landscapes.
