Queen Elizabeth Celebrates Canadian Transportation

One of the most flattering pictures of Queen Elizabeth I have ever seen is the one depicted on the six cent Canadian stamp which debuted in 1968.  The stamp depicts the Queen, along with several modes of transportation:  an ocean freighter, a jet, a transport truck, a bus and a turbo train which operated in Canada between 1968 and 1982.  A microwave tower was included to symbolize communications.
