I can't provide too much information, but thought you might be interested in this link (refer to page 36) where the same Ford Employees Stamp Club did a 1947 cachet for the Canadian Citizenship Issue (even using the Ford Motor Company logo within their cachet):
http://www.kgvi.ca/docs/1947_Citizen.pdfI also found this listing on Stamp Club publications from this link:
