Canada
Trans Canada Airlines (TCA) was formed by the Canadian National Railways. They launched their first flight on September 1, 1937, between Vancouver and Seattle. Throughout the next 25 years, TCA became Canada's national airline, and on January 1, 1965, TCA changed their name to Air Canada. This particular uniform was the second uniform issued by TCA, and was worn between 1939 and perhaps up to 1949. The military style uniform was made of a navy-blue serge for winter and a grey serge for summer. There were one or two stripes at the sleeve depending on the flight attendant's rank, the jacket had three metal buttons, a handkerchief in the pocket, a wide collar blue? blouse, a TCA pin worn on the lapel and a grey or navy blue wedge cap. This particular uniform belonged to Mrs. Rita (Meyer) Spencer. She wore this uniform from 1944 to 1947, flew the Atlantic routes, and was based in Winnipeg. (see S.I.)
