Canada First Day Covers (General)
Canada · 1900 ·
This listing represents a general category for Canadian First Day Covers (FDCs). An FDC is an envelope or card bearing a stamp, postmarked on the day the stamp was first issued for sale. These items are popular with collectors as they combine the stamp with a commemorative cachet (artwork) and a dated postmark, creating a unique philatelic souvenir.
First Day Covers have been a popular collecting specialty since the early 20th century, documenting the release of new postage stamps and often commemorating significant national events, figures, or culture.
