Tunisia Airmail Stamp

Tunisia · 1920 ·

This stamp is part of Tunisia's first airmail series, featuring a biplane flying over the ruins of the Roman aqueduct at Carthage. The design symbolizes the connection between ancient history and modern transportation. The stamps were overprinted on existing definitive issues.

Issued under the French Protectorate, these stamps facilitated the nascent airmail service connecting Tunisia with France and other parts of Europe, marking a significant step in the country's postal development.
