Umberto Boeri Editore, Roma

This is an Italian printed series of 6 cards (possibly 7) showing either a DC4 or Constellation over places or cities in Europe. The series is produced by Umberto Boeri in Rome and illustrated by Mario d'Ercoli.

The six cards are DC4's over Athens (missing in my collection), Cairo and Geneva, Constellations over Paris (missing in my collection), Rome and Shannon. I have a 7th card in my collection and it's the Constellation over Milano shown below. It's produced by Umberto Boeri but I can't find Mario d'Ercoli's name on the front.
