Traditionally, stamps have been issued to record major milestones in our history.

The events of war are no exception.

In fact, as soon as wartime hostilities

ceased in November 1918, it was suggested that

a

special

stamp

be

issued

to

commemorate the declaration of peace.

It was a suggestion which met with the approval of New Zealand

immediate

Postmaster-General, Sir Joseph Ward. and so developed the 1920 Victory issue.

The issue consisted of six stamps with denominations of 'hd, 1d, 1 'hd, 3d, 6d and 1s and each bearing a different deSign.

The 6d stamp featured on the cover of this issue of "Focus" symbolises progress.

In the original design. its colour was similar

to that of the I d and 1s stamps in the issue.

To set it apart, it was printed in the same shade of violet as the British 3d stamp issued in the same year.

The issue was placed on sale in

Dear Stamp Enthusiast, Although I live in New Zealand, I am in constant touch with collectors and dealers all over the world.

The popularity of our country's stamps is obvious.

The International Federation of Stamp Dealers Associations (IFSDA) represents 6,000 stamp dealers worldwide. Founded in 1952, it has had only four Presidents and I am the first from an English speaking country.

IFSDA members come from all countries and backgrounds and

many have become aware of New

Zealand and are taking an interest in our stamps. This has made it easier for the stamp trade in New Zealand to sell overseas, with sales currently at record levels.

Within New Zealand, there are about 50 dealers who belong to the NZSDA, affiliated to IFSDA. In all

Zealand. This is remarkable for such a small country and

New Zealand and overseas.

In the

past,

New Zealand Post has closely

co-operated with and supported NZSDA members attending overseas exhibitions. This has helped create a strong demand for New Zealand stamps.

IFSDA is working with the main stamp producing countries to promote the hobby and introduce more collectors. Such positive steps can only augur well for the hobby and New Zealand stamps in particular.

Yours sincerely
