Nothing says summer like the freedom of a road trip—or the appearance of the Roadside Attractions stamp series from Canada Post. For this third journey, we’ve set our sights on the Eastern Provinces—and found quite an appetizing link between the roadside marvels of the East Coast.
“From signposts to squid, a big blueberry to a giant woodsman, there’s a pride, somewhat tongue‑in-cheek, in helping to showcase Canada’s sense of humour and history through this work,” says stamp series designer Fraser Ross, of Halifax’s Semaphor Design. “It’s been a great road trip for me.”
