Hello and welcome to cddstamps on aircraft and aerophilately. I have searched for a new series but have not found a topic or country I want to write about so am going to just show a few stamps I think are worth seeing, at least for the time being.
Let’s start with this one from French Polynesia. Obviously an artists impression while under the influence perhaps? What do you think? I am all for artist verisimilitude but this one doesn’t do it for me.

Issued in 1960 for the inauguration of Papeete airport and supposedly showing a DC8. Someone will know more than me but I thought DC7s were being used around 1960 with the DC8 introduced on the Honolulu service around 1962.
Stamps are there for us to enjoy and learn.
I welcome readers comments. Just email me at cddstamps@gmail.com especially if you have an idea for a new theme / series I can research and write about.
All the best, see you soon Michael cddstamps.com …. or visit my online store https://www.hipstamp.com/store/cddstamps where I have some interesting aviation related
