Canada Covers

Colombia / Canada SCADTA Airmail. An attractive 1930 dual franking cover, posted from Vancouver on Oct 21st 1930 to Girardot, Colombia. The Colombian stamps, available from the Columbian Consulate in gave Canadians a unique (and philatelically fascinating) way to pre-pay airmail service to the interior of Colombia. Accompanying this cover is a photo-copy of the 1992 BNA Topics article by Water Plomish explaining the airmail service, an article which this cover is also illustrated! A seldom-seen item of Canadian Aerophilately. Estimate =
