THIS IS A POSTCARD FROM NIGERIA, CIRCA 1970. A fellow philatelist gave me this throw-away freebie when I purchased an First Day Cover recently.
The airliner looks like a de Havilland DH.106 Comet, so the photo might be from the early 1950s. The Comet was the first commercial jet airliner to enter operation in 1949.
The person's message is kinda funny too, not just the camels or 'six-legged' camel. Take note this photo was taken before Photoshop or similar software; nowadays this image could easily be rendered.
