Measures 5 1/4" x 4 1/8" The first stamps issued by Solomon Islands are popularly referred to as the 1907 'Large Canoes'. They were based on a drawing by Mr. Charles Woodford, Resident Commissioner, and were an instant success. Unfortunately their colorings did not comply with prevailing regulations of the Universal Postal Union and, so, in 1908, the 'Small Canoes' issue, reproduced above replaced them. The paper used embodied one of the earliest examples of the now famous Crown Agents Watermark, the Multiple Crown, C.A. sideways. The stamps were printed by Thomas De La Rue. 1984 is highly significant for Solomon Islands as the nation has attained full membership of the Universal Postal Union with effect from 1st January. As evidence of the nation's commitment to the ideals of the Union, two delegates will, for the first time, attend, and participate in, the U.P.U. XIX Congress in Hamburg in June.
