Details about the stamps:
Titanic's impressive bow and two front anchors (each said to have weighed over 10 tons) fill the centre of each pair. The pair separates into a right and left stamp for mailing.
The right side shows Southampton (England), where the Titanic started her maiden voyage on April 10, 1912. Most of the Titanic's crew hailed from in and around the city.
On the left is Halifax (Nova Scotia, Canada), which became the centre of the rescue and recovery efforts after the tragic sinking on April 15, 1912. Halifax's cemeteries became the final resting place approximately 150 victims.
The house flag of the White Star Line (Titanic's owners) sits at the bottom of each stamp. This red flag—with its white five-pointed star and v-shaped tail—was flown from the top of the Titanic's main mast.
In addition to the tireless recovery efforts of the people of Halifax and the 100-plus Canadians on board the ship, it was a team of employees working at the Canadian Marconi company's wireless station on Cape Race, Newfoundland, who heard the early distress call.
