About this plate
HONORARY CONSULAR AGENTS, "Agents consulaires honoraires" in the instrument's own heading, which is narrower than "consular corps": career consular officers were in the GREEN diplomatic family in 1978. The distinction between honorary and career consular status is carried in the law and is preserved here.
About its years
Original to AM 78-5 and confirmed against the 1978 printing, which gives "CC suivi d'un numéro allant de 01 à 99", and, notably, gives the colour as BLEU even in 1978, when every diplomatic sub-series was green. So the honorary consular series has been blue throughout, and it was the only blue series in the diplomatic family in 1978.
Format notes
art. 6: 'les lettres CC suivies d'un numéro allant de 1 à 99', a 99-registration closed block
