- Notes:
- A promotional map showing the service area of Air India on a paper fan, probably for distribution to passengers. The map uses an unusual projection in the shape of a lotus leaf, which efficiently accommodates the shape of the fan and delineates Air India's major routes in a compact (albeit unfamiliar) manner. There is a decorative scene on the verso. Date is estimated.
