| 2008 Christmas |
This Christmas, we offer stamps for all tastes, with a six-stamp issue that combines the tradition and the modern.
The "modern" stamps are the result of our third annual "Design a Stamp" competition, in which we invited school children throughout New Zealand to create stamps based on the theme of "Kiwi Christmas". The other three stamps take a more traditional approach.
