GB to Canada Airmail 1929
Posted: Wed Jun 23, 2021 11:11 pm
I have a cover sent from London to Vancouver in 1929 with 8.5d postage and an Air Mail sticker. I know that there was no Trans-Atlantic Air mail at the time so this applies to the Canadian portion of the trip.
I have seen another cover sent in 1930 from Southend-on-Sea to Clinton, Ontario with an Air mail sticker and 5.5d postage.
There is no mention of these rates in this period on the GBPS Postal rates site so I am sure it is complicated. Does anybody know where I can find information on Airmail rates from GB to Canada prior to the trans-Atlantic service?
Many thanks for any information!
