In 1928, Albania issued its first series of airmail stamps. These stamps were specifically designated for use on airmail correspondence, which was an emerging mode of postal service at the time, allowing for faster delivery of mail over long distances, particularly between distant regions or across national borders.

The 1928 Albanian airmail stamps featured designs that typically incorporated aviation-related motifs, such as airplanes, propellers, or clouds, to symbolize the airmail service. The stamps likely bore the inscription “Aeropostë” or similar, indicating their intended use for airmail.

During this period, Albania was a relatively young and developing nation, and the issuance of airmail stamps reflected its efforts to modernize its postal infrastructure and keep pace with advancements in transportation and communication technology.

The introduction of airmail service and the issuance of airmail stamps represented an important milestone in Albania’s postal history, facilitating faster and more efficient communication both domestically and internationally. These stamps are now sought after by collectors for their historical significance and thematic appeal.
