Common Airmail Stamps Issued in 1955

Although this series is a common airmail stamp, it has all the important features seen in the best of airmail stamp designs. A transport aircraft is in flight over a globe picturing the Soviet Union. The country extends from the Baltic Sea to the Pacific Ocean.

The aircraft resembles a DC-3. The design is a small stamp, though the message of airmail and the political extent of the Soviet Union are quite clear in its design.
