Three masks for three cities: the first flight for Swissair from Geneva to Libreville (with some sort of origin point at Zürich) on 13 May 1971. As with other first day covers from Swissair, the lower-right has a United Nations routing number, with the postage and cancellation stamp also of UN designation. There is no information on aircraft, or whether there were other stops between Geneva and M'Ba International.

Swissair: Zürich-Genève-Libreville, May 1971

This is simply worth spreading, I will post it on our Facebook Group "J'aime Libreville". Please join us with more goodies like that about the Gabonese capital.
