Where does the result $$ e=3v-6 $$
For planar graphs come from?
I can't find an original source for this property

The source of this relation really is Euler, if one sets up a simple planar graph, $\Gamma$ with at least three vertices and two edges, it can be shown that
$$\frac{2}{3}f \leq e \leq 3v-6$$
for faces, $f$, edges $e$ and vertices $v$.
