Inscriptions Typed in black ink on applied label, verso BC: (Europe's Wealth) 3/62 23) CLOVERLEAF PATTERNS and bright lights cope \ with the heavy traffic near Paris' Orly Airport, \ formerly a crucial point on the heavily traveled \ road leading to the Riviera. Superhighway con- \ struction, begun in Europe with the auobahn of pre- \ war Germany but interrupted until the late fifties, \ is now becoming commonplace. \ Credit: Erich Lessing © MAGNUM PHOTOS
