The edition photographed is dated March 15 to 21, 1969, as indicated by the top line. This issue highlights a special feature on \"The Region and its People\", with a large black and white photograph of ships moored in a port, probably located on the French Riviera or in a Mediterranean port in the Provence region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visible page shows a typical layout for 1960s press, with a composition that is both sober and legible, alternating bright red titles and black text.
