G U EST COLUMNIST Dear stamp enthusiast My stamp collecting spans many many years.

Beginning at the age of 12, I was first interested in Chile, Belgium and Argentina. Given that my father was also a keen collector, it is hardly surprising that I have been keen and active in philatelic societies both in England and here in New Zealand, for a large part of my life.

As President of the World Stamp Exhibition, 'New Zealand 1990' I am delighted to introduce you to a preview of what you can expect to see at this exhibition. The following pages outline a number of the more significant displays and collections which will be on show. The New Zealand public will be Richard Armstrons, treated to a truly world class display, and one which is President of unlikely to be repeated in this country for a great World Sump Exhibition 'New Zealand J990' many years.

The year 1990 is an important year for stamp collectors for another reason: it commemorates the 150th anniversary of the world's first postage stamp, the Penny Black. The design of the Penny Black stems from a sketch made by Henry Corbould of William Wyon's City Medal. Eleven plates, each of 240 stamps were used for the printing.

It is interesting that of the 68 million Penny Blacks issued, some 4 million are believed to be in collectors' hands today.

If you have the chance to visit the World Stamp Exhibition 'New Zealand 1990' - and I hope you do - you will enjoy the displays of the Penny Blacks.

Good collecting and see you at the showl

SPECTACULAR COURT OF HONOUR Part of the collection belonging to H.M. Queen Elizabeth 11 will be on display in the special 'Court of Honour'. It will appear alongside a magnificent display of Valentine cards and a fascinating variety of specimen stamps from Australia Post.

A STAMP IN THE MAKING Most New Zealand stamps are printed by Leigh-Mardon of Melbourne, Australia. As Australasia's biggest security printer, they will stage a fascinating display which explains how stamps are printed. In addition you will see a working stamp perforator which is being brought to New Zealand for the exhibition.

NZ RELEASES AT EXHIBITION There will be much to see from New Zealand Post. Two stamp issues, a special vending machine postage label issue, plus the New Zealand Heritage Stamp Collection will all be released.

Naturally, a souvenir envelope will be on sale; and there will be a different postmark for each day.

New Zealand Post will be one of over 30 Postal Administrations at the Exhibition, together with 30 New Zealand and overseas stamp dealers who will have stands.

DISINFECTED MAIL During the cholera and plague epidemics of the 17th Century, various

ZEALAND

1990'

European countries introduced methods of "disinfecting" mail from suspect areas. The methods included opening and "airing" the letter, splashing it with vinegar, cutting the letter with a chisel to let the pestilent air out, and suspending the letter over the heat of a brazier.

All methods except the first left traces. However, detecting disinfected mail is made easier in many cases by a special handstamp which was applied by some disinfecting stations.

Of course all methods of disinfection were entirely ineffective and it is now known that the risk of infection from such letters was extremely slight.

MAIL BY AIRSHIP The famous 'Graf Zeppelin' carried a few pieces of mail on its first flight of many in 1928.

/ / In 1929 the Graf made a round the world flight and in 1931 it kept a date with a Russian ice-breaker in polar waters.

On all of these flights mail was carried and many countries issued commemorative stamps featuring the different flights.

The larger 'Hindenburg' made flights from Germany to North and South America before crashing at New Continued on Page 17

THE

ANTARCTIC

Ross Dependency Issue November 7 1990.

This series could be called 'Survivors of the Antarctic' because the main thing all these birds have in common is their ability to breed and survive in unforgiving Antarctic conditions.

Yet it's not only the harshness of the climatic conditions that make survival a never-ending challenge. There are also numerous natural predators always ready to feed on the unwary or unguarded.

Artist for the stamps and their first day cover is Aucklander Janet Luxton.

Her simplified Antarctic seascape depicts typical feeding grounds for all the birds. The colours chosen capture brilliantly the coldness of the sea and the isolation on land.

THE

WILSON'S PETREL

STORM i

(Oceanites oceanicus)

A wide ranging traveller, after breeding, Wilson's Storm Petrel leaves the cold for the warmth of the Indian, Pacific or North Atlantic oceans. It creates a burrow or uses crevices to house its single egg.

SNOW PETREL

ANTARCTIC PETREL

(Pagodroma nivea)

Unique among petrels for their snow white plumage, Snow Petrels nest on cliffs and slopes, usually facing into the wind so that nest inhabitants aren't smothered by snow.

(ThaJassoica antarctica)

Antarctic Petrels are only rarely seen in New Zealand. They favour rocks or cliff edges as breeding grounds where they lay a single egg.

6

EMPEROR PENGUIN (Aptenodyres lorsteri)

Biggest of the penguin family, the Emperors breed in about 25 places around the edge of Antarctica. They have a long breeding cycle to ensure ample summer food for emerging chicks. Empereror males incubate the egg in a solitary 62-66 day fast; the female takes over once the egg is hatched.

ANTARCTIC FULMAR (Fulmarus glaciaJoides)

Gull-like in appearance, these birds leave the Antarctic for the worst of the winter and can be seen as far north as the Bay of Plenty and Auckland's west coast.

COLLECTORS NOTES The Antarctic Birds Issue will be printed by the offset process by Heraclio Fournier of Vitoria, Spain. The six stamps will each measure 34mm high by 30mm wide. They will be printed in sheets of 100 (10 x 10 rows).

CHINSTRAP PENGUIN (Pygoscelis antarctica)

Antarctica's flat coastal areas are home to rookeries each crammed with many millions of these aggressive birds. Chinstraps sometimes share breeding grounds with Adelie penguins.

SHEEP

OF

NEW

ZEALAND

January 23 1991

In

most people's minds, sheep and New Zealand are inseparable. Sheep were the cornerstone of this country's early economic development. Their wool and meat have contributed through the decades to establishing trading links with major international markets.

Today, a more marketing-oriented approach is taken to encourage the consumption of sheep meat products - both domestically and internationally and has secured New Zealand as a top supplier of meat and wool.

This issue pays tribute to the sheep and its contribution to our history and economy.

FIRST ARRIVALS The first sheep to arrive in New Zealand are thought to have been brought here by the missionary, Samuel Marsden in 1814. Soon after, early immigrants recognised the potential for New Zealand wool on the European market.

However, it wasn't until 1834 that the first Merinos arrived here from Australia; they were immediately transported to the Wairarapa on the East Coast and were the first animals to be farmed here in any volume.

DUAL PURPOSE SHE E P Gradually, as a sheep meat trade was established, farmers began to prefer 'dual purpose' sheep which gave them both wool and meat. Over the past 150 years New Zealand farmers have worked to perfect breeds which meet the dual purpose need. Five of their successes appear, together with the traditional English Romney, in this issue.

THE ARTIST Though in all six stamps, artist Lindy Fisher has shown each breed in its preferred natural surroundings, she has also captured the sheep's strong

instinct to flock.

Each stamp measures 40mm high by 28mm wide. A first day cover has also been designed by Lindy Fisher.

March 6, 1991

The Chathams comprise ten islands rising out of surging sub-Antarctic waters. They are the south-eastern extremity of 5000 years of Pacific exploration by the Polynesians, common ancestors of both Morioris and Maoris.

200 years ago, when Lieutenant WilIiam Broughton first landed on the Chathams after a storm, there were thought to be as many as 2000 Morioris living peaceably on the Chathams.

NEW

ASSOCIATION March 6, 1991

While rugby is considered the dominant winter sport in New Zealand, today over 1,000 teams compete in senior and youth grade soccer

Association first began to administer the game. Then the difficulties of travel meant that the games were competed in only on a local basis. However, an inter-provincial match was played in 1890, when Canterbury beat Wellington 2-0.

This issue will be a setenant set of two 80c stamps and is being designed by Terry Crilley. It has been timed to coindde with the New Zealand Football Assodations centenary celebrations.

INTERNATIONAL New Zealand began to play soccer internationally in 1904, when a New South Wales side visited and won five of the 9-game series. In 1922 New Zealand's first full international debut, again against an Australian squad, showed much promise, when they won two and drew one of a 3-match series.

While national New Zealand soccer teams have yet to achieve the international prominence of their rugby playing colleagues, the All Whites were successful in qualifying for the 1982 World Cup and are aiming to repeat this success.

throughout the country. In total, 50,000 youngsters compete through the New Zealand Junior Football Association.

Since the very early days of settlement, New Zealanders have played organised sport for enjoyment and competition. Soccer in particular, originated from games played last century at English public shools and is increasing in popularity amongst followers and players alike.

A LOYAL REPRODUCTION This commemorative miniature sheet has been reproduced using the traditional engraving process known as intaglio. Intaglio printing originated in Europe around the 15th century, and prospered as a means of artistic printing. During the 19th century it became a common method of producing bank notes and postage stamps.

Historically this effect was achieved by hand engraving an image into a master plate. More modern methods allow the same effect to be achieved using a photograph of artwork to produce a photo-etched intaglio plate.

running your finger over the surface of an intaglio stamp; you can actually feel this raised impression.

The total surface of this plate is inked over then wiped, leaving ink on only the engraved areas. This is then transferred, under pressure, to the paper.

Material created by the intaglio process can be distinguished from other methods of printing by its extremely fine detail and sharp lines. You will notice it has an almost three dimensional quality when compared to other stamp printing processes. Try

April 17 1991

The Tuatara, the 'living fossil', is an acknowledged survivor from the age of dinosaurs, and a unique example of New Zealand wildlife.

It now lives naturally only in New Zealand. Everywhere else in the world Sphenodontia, the reptile order from which Tuatara descend, died out about 60 million years ago.

Their haunts encompass some thirty tiny islands in the Marlborough Sounds and off the east coast of the North Island.

THE SACRED REPTILE Maoris declared the Tuatara tapu (sacred) and not to be hunted. Their rarity made them so prized by European collectors, they were given absolute protection by law as early as 1885.

Today, the Tuatara's survival demands a programme of constant conservation and research. ~ The set of four stamps comprising this special issue all bear the World Wildlife Fund logo. Some of , the stamps will be

NI GHT Like many reptiles, Tuatara are active mostly at night. They feed on insects and the occasional small

seabird, such as a petrel. They will also eat seabird chicks and eggs.

Tuatara enjoy a lifespan of at least 60 years, maturing at about 11 years and reaching full size at 25 years.

Males grow to almost twice the size of females; up to 60cm long and I kg in weight.

Tuatara habitat is the coastal forest of the cliff-ringed islands they

distributed by the World Wildlife Fund as part of their special stamp collection.

This issue is being designed by Pauline Morse and will comprise four 40c stamps.

York after only a year's service. Some mail was salvaged, all badly damaged by fire.

ANGLO BOER WAR ProVided it carried the words 'No Stamps Available', mail from British and Commonwealth troops fighting in the Boer War was delivered from South Africa, post-free.

Much of this mail was censored and today, the special labels and marks indicating censorship are highly sought after. So are hand illustrated covers and cards sent by troops and prisoners of war to family and friends.

There were also special local stamps produced. Some Great Britain stamps were overprinted. Both sides distributed illustrated postcards.

GREAT BARRIER PIGEON POST When the SS Wairarapa was wrecked on Great Barrier Island in 1894, the news took quite some time to reach Auckland and the mainland. This emphasised the remoteness of the island and a regular pigeon post was introduced.

In 1898 the first of a series of four one-shilling stamps was issued by the organisers of this service. With a value of one shilling, the stamps covered the cost of sending a special message form by pigeon to the mainland.

When it was later pointed out that only the official postal authority may legally issue postage stamps, these stamps were inscribed with the word 'pigeongram'.

NEW ZEALAND PIONEER AIR MAILS

AIRCRAFT DISASTER COVERS Postal authorities always attempt to recover the mail from aircraft disasters and wherever possible it is forwarded, often charred and wet, to the addressee.

Commonly known as 'crash covers', much of this mail originated in the period just after World War I when the surplus of aircraft and trained Aying servicemen saw enthusiastic Ayers competing to win tenders for new routes.

New Zealand's first official Aerial Mail was Aown from Auckland to Dargaville in a Boeing sea-plane in 1919.

1920 saw the first aerial crossing of Cook Strait with mail being Aown from Christchurch to Wellington and returning to Christchurch via Blenheim and Kaikoura.

The poor economic times of the 1930s slowed development. Several small services struggled on to build the basis for viable operation.
