SCG6878 - Sweden 1960 – Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) 10th Anniversary
1 in stock
This striking blue Swedish stamp, denominated 40 öre, was issued in 1960 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS), which was founded in 1950 as a joint venture between Sweden, Denmark, and Norway.
The minimalist design by Philip von Schantz, engraved by Arne Wallhorn, depicts the silhouette of a modern airliner soaring across stylized jet trails — symbolizing the speed and unity of the Scandinavian nations in aviation progress. The clean lines and geometric abstraction reflect the mid-century Scandinavian design ethos.
Issued during the jet age, this stamp honors SAS’s pioneering intercontinental routes, including its polar flights connecting Scandinavia to North America and Asia. It’s a favorite among collectors of aviation-themed, Scandinavian, and 1950s-1960s modernist postal issues.
