4 DEAR COLLECTORS An issue of a different order The Canadian Hockey Legends stamps were unveiled at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto on September 27, From left to right: Marty Howe, son of Gordie Howe; Normand Richard, son of Maurice Richard; Brian Wilson, Vice-President, Operations, Canada Post; Bryan Trottier, friend and former teammate of Mario Lemieux; James Maloney, member of Parliament for Etobicoke- Lakeshore; Deepak Chopra, President and CEO of Canada Post; Walter Gretzky, father of Wayne Gretzky; Ron Blanchard, friend and business partner of Bobby Orr; and Élise Béliveau, widow of Jean Béliveau. This month, we are excited to introduce our History of Hockey joint issue with the United States Postal Service on October 20 and our Toronto Maple Leafs stamps on October 24. Yet, for the first time in recent memory, our stories in Details aren t published as usual according to the stamps issue dates. But there s a good reason for this decision. Considering that Leafs fans live throughout Canada and the Leafs Nation is strong we decided to flip the order of the articles just this once to honour the team s centennial. Besides, it isn t every day that we get to announce a philatelic first, that is, a real fabric crest on the Maple Leafs $5 stamp. Of course, like all the stamps released this year, we ve hidden some 2017 features in the Leafs and History of Hockey designs. So put your detective skills to the test and find them all, or wait until they re revealed in a next issue of Details. Happy collecting.

5 TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS 100 TH ANNIVERSARY Issue date: October 24, 2017 $8 50 Booklet of 10 stamps $5 Souvenir sheet See page 2 for more details One hundred years ago, the Toronto Arenas entered the newly formed National Hockey League (NHL ) for the season. Despite losing its inaugural game to the Montreal Wanderers on December 19, 1917, the team proved its mettle, defeating the Vancouver Millionaires to claim the first Stanley Cup Championship following the establishment of the NHL. The team played as the Toronto St. Pats from 1919 to 1927, when new manager Conn Smythe renamed it the Toronto Maple Leafs. Stirred by patriotism, Smythe chose a crest that was reminiscent of the badge that he and his fellow Canadian soldiers wore into battle during the First World War. To mark the team s centennial, Canada Post has unveiled several stamps, including a salute to the team s centennial crest, plus a philatelic first and a roster of collectibles for stamp collectors and members of the Leafs Nation. The three stamps that anchor the issue were designed by Lionel Gadoury and Dave Hurds of Toronto-based Context Creative. A coil of 50 stamps bearing the 100 th anniversary Toronto Maple Leafs logo is paired with a free commemorative stamp dispenser in the shape of a puck. A book of 10 domestic-rate stamps features the team s new centennial anniversary logo, a redesigned maple leaf Ready to place an order? Our convenient online store is always open. DETAILS 11 OCTOBER

The innovative third stamp is a philatelic first. Canada Post has adhered a miniature fabric crest to this $5 stamp, which is available only in a souvenir sheet, complete with commemorative packaging. The result is a unique and tactile stamp that simulates the texture and stitching of the crest sported by the Leafs during their first dynasty era. The issue also displays a vintage sweater belonging to Ted Teeder Kennedy, who played centre for the Toronto Maple Leafs during his entire career to Kennedy also captained the team for eight seasons and, along with teammate Turk Broda, was the first Leafs member in NHL history to win five Stanley Cup Championships. The rest of the issue includes a set of three collectible envelopes, each one affixed with a different stamp from the issue and a different cancel, as well as a commemorative framed enlargement all in celebration of 100 years of the Toronto Maple Leafs. 6 DETAILS 11 OCTOBER 2017 Visit your local post office.

8 HISTORY OF HOCKEY CANADA-UNITED STATES JOINT ISSUE Issue date: October 20, 2017 $8 50 Booklet of 10 stamps Canadians can be a little territorial about their passion for hockey, but thanks to decades of league expansion and the rise of fan interest in community teams, it s clear that Americans are also enamoured of our national winter sport. This Canada-U.S. joint issue pays tribute to that shared history born on frozen ponds and hometown rinks. This sixth joint issue with the United States Postal Service (USPS) was designed by Roy White, with photography by KC Armstrong and professional retouching by Brad Pickard. In the clever design of the joined pair of stamps, the ice surface becomes a figurative portal through time. On one stamp we see a young man, in modern equipment, playing pond hockey on a winter s day. The second stamp is a mirror image of the first, but the player is from the 1930s or 1940s. The issue includes the two Canadian domesticrate stamps, as well as a souvenir sheet featuring gummed versions of the pair and a souvenir sheet Official First Day Cover (OFDC) cancelled in Windsor, Ontario. Also available is a joint OFDC bearing the tête-bêche Canadian designs and the two stamps denominated at USPS s Forever rate, cancelled in Windsor, Ontario, and Detroit, Michigan. 8 DETAILS 11 OCTOBER 2017 From Canada or the U.S
