Description

Original title was Addis Ababa: gateway to exhotic tourist attractions of Ethiopia, but the "h" in "exhotic" has been whited-out.
Poster is mainly white with a black outer border, and a white inner border.
It is unclear if the governing body that issued this is from Addis Ababa or Ethiopia.
A photographic image of a statue of the Ethiopian emperor, Menelik II, and St. George's Cathedral, both in Addis Ababa. Many trees surround the cathedral, and the statue is located on a grassy patch with some shrubbery.
Text is primarily in English, Amharic is found in the seal.
