A composite of all eight sheets joined. A very large eight sheet map of the world showing air routes of Air France. This map was also issued in 1959 and we have a joined copy of that issue mounted on linen. This 1961 edition updates the 1959 edition, changing several of the air routes and adding new routes, for example the route to Honolulu. At Lower right border: Perceval Paris Printed in France Ref: 21 364 /P/ 3-61
