Morocco Agencies (French) · 1922 · 1 Franc

This is an airmail stamp created by overprinting a standard French Morocco postage stamp. The base stamp, featuring a mosque, was surcharged in black with the word "POSTE AERIENNE" and a new denomination of 1 Franc. This issue was prepared for the airmail service between Casablanca and Oran.

Issued under the French Protectorate in Morocco, this stamp represents the early development of international airmail routes connecting North Africa with Europe in the post-World War I era.
