EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Imperial Penny Postage, the Organising Committee of the Conference" captures a significant moment in postal history. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image showcases a group of influential individuals who played key roles in shaping the future of mail delivery. In celebration of Sir James Winter's birthday on November 9th, this photograph features notable figures such as Lord Strathcona, Canadian Postmaster General; Mr. A. A. Pearson, Cape Agent General; and Mr. W. Muloch from Newfoundland among others. They gather together to discuss important matters related to postal services within their respective regions. Representatives from Crown colonies like Cape Colony and Natal join forces with politicians from Canada and the United Kingdom to adopt an innovative concept known as Imperial Penny Postage during the conference. This groundbreaking idea aims to establish uniform rates for sending letters across various territories under Her Majesty's Government. The presence of esteemed individuals like Sir David Tennant, Duke of Norfolk, Prince of Wales, and HM Postmaster General adds gravitas to this historic occasion. Their collective efforts pave the way for improved communication between Canadians and citizens throughout North America. This print serves as a reminder that behind every successful innovation lies dedicated individuals working tirelessly towards progress.
