Description
This regular issue 7 cents stamp, designed primarily for air mail letters to the United States, was the first Canadian postage stamp issue of 1964. It replaced the famous blue "Canada Goose" design which has been in use since 1952. The design of this 7 cents issue shows a modern inter-city jet aircraft taking off from a Canadian airport. The stamp is in blue similar to the Canada goose issue, and is of the intermediate size. The aircraft pictured in the new stamp is a composite of many modern short and long range jets and is not intended to represent any specific make or model. The airport buildings pictured in the stamp are patterned after the structure at Ottawa's International Air Terminal at Uplands which was opened to the public in 1960. The "blue goose", a very popular stamp with philatelists around the world, was retired primarily because of the introduction of the 15 cents postage stamp which also showed Canada geese in flight. It is not normal to maintain in use 2 regular issue stamps portraying similar subjects.
