Description
This centennial commemorative stamp honoured the transfer in 1851 of the administration of postal service from Great Britain to British North America. It emphasizes the development of communications by air, a feature of Canadian history closely related to the development of postal service. The 1st day of issue coincided with the stamp exhibition called CAPEX (Canadian Association for Philatelic Exhibitions). The Postmaster General, G. Edouard Rinfret, was the Honorary President. The lower half of the 7-cent postage stamp displays an early stagecoach passing Jordan's York Hotel, King Street East, York (now Toronto, Ontario). In 1814, the Legislature met in this hotel after the destruction of the Government Buildings by invading United States forces in 1813. The upper half of the stamp design features a 1951-type Canadian-built North Star plane in the service of Trans-Canada Airlines.
