The Official Special Delivery and Airmail Stamps of Canada: 1928-1950 | Geography determined that we have these stamps. Unlike Europe where an efficient and extensive train service existed, North America with its sparse population spread across a large continent, required special delivery and Airmail services. As a result, Canada and the United States of America have more Special Delivery and Airmail stamps than any other country. Canada issued many such stamps but selected only 35 for Official Government use. This exhibit is about these stamps. A tiny but fascinating segment of Canadian Philately, complete with an astonishing mix of allegory, heraldry, icons, patriotism, and classic mythology… | |
