Issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Universal Postal Union, this attractive Jersey stamp illustrates the evolution of global mail transport. The design combines modern airmail service represented by a British Airways aircraft with the historic steamship RMS Aquila, symbolizing the transition from sea to air communication. The dual imagery highlights the technological progress that enabled faster international postal exchange. Printed by Courvoisier S.A., the issue is admired for its clean engraving and balanced historical narrative. A key thematic piece for collectors of UPU, transport, aviation, and maritime postal history.
