Estonia 1923 Airmail, Airplane over Tallinn

Estonia · 1923 · 45 Mk

This airmail stamp features a biplane flying over a stylized depiction of Tallinn's Old Town, including the distinctive spires of St. Olaf's Church and the Town Hall. The design, created by Karl Triumph, captures the early era of aviation and its importance in connecting the newly independent nation. The denomination is prominently displayed in the upper corners.

Issued in 1923, this stamp reflects the development of airmail services in the First Republic of Estonia, a period of national self-determination and modernization between the World Wars.
