Description
This 1-dollar postage stamp was designed by Emanuel Hahn and the stamps were engraved and printed by the Canadian Bank Note Company, Ottawa. The new stamp displays a Pacific Coast Indian House and Totem Pole. This subject was selected because it is a popular symbol of a colourful chapter of Canada's rich heritage. The natives of the north-west coast of Candada were accustomed to record for posterity their genealogy, history and traditions by carving and painting, using representative symbols, chiefly animal designs.
