Ecuador Airmail, Imperforate Set of 3

Ecuador · 1965 · 1.30s, 1.80s, 2.00s

This airmail set features three designs celebrating Ecuadorian aviation and wildlife. The stamps depict a Douglas DC-6B aircraft over a map of Ecuador, a condor in flight over the Andes mountains, and a DC-6B flying over the Guayas River. These are imperforate versions, meaning they lack the usual perforations for separation.

Issued in the mid-1960s, this set highlights the importance of air travel for connecting Ecuador's diverse geography, from the Andean highlands to its coastal regions. The imperforate versions were not intended for regular postal use and are scarcer than their perforated counterparts.
