Item Description

1915 Canada Patriotic Poster Stamp Made In Canada Coat Of Arms Outlined In Black Unused Previously Glued To Page On Top Of Stamp 80% Original Gum. This Is A Patriotic Canadian Poster Stamp, Featuring Nationalist Messaging Encouraging Support For Domestically Made Goods. The Central Design Element Is A Bold Orange Circle With Black Border Containing The Text "Made In Canada" In Strong, All-Caps Lettering. The Background Is The **Red Ensign**, Canada’s De Facto National Flag Prior To The Maple Leaf Flag’s Adoption In 1965. In The Upper Left Corner Is The Union Jack, And In The Lower Right Corner Appears The Canadian Coat Of Arms Surrounded By Maple Leaves And Topped With A Crown.This Stamp Likely Dates From The 1920s To The 1940s, When Canadian Identity Was Closely Tied To British Heritage, And Economic Nationalism Was Gaining Ground. The “Made In Canada” Movement Was Aimed At Strengthening The Domestic Economy By Encouraging Citizens To Buy Canadian-Manufactured Products. Such Poster Stamps Were Often Used On Trade Catalogs, Export Goods, And Promotional Materials To Emphasize National Production. This Stamp May Have Been Part Of The Same Wave Of Economic Nationalist Promotion Seen In The Trois-Rivières Industrial Series You’ve Been Collecting. While This One Lacks A Regional Identifier, Its Strong Use Of National Symbols Suggests Government Or Major Trade Organization Involvement—Possibly Through The Department Of Trade And Commerce Or A Manufacturer’s Association.
