Item Description

An unused postage stamp from New Zealand, commemorating the joint issue of stamps with Australia to mark the "Happy Bicentenary!" event. The stamp is worth 40 cents and was issued in 1988 by New Zealand. It depicts a kiwi bird (a symbol of New Zealand) and a koala (a symbol of Australia) sitting around a fire, symbolizing the friendly relations between the two countries. The inscription "Joint issue of stamps with Australia" emphasizes the cooperation. New Zealand and Australia have deep historical and economic ties, with Australia being one of New Zealand's most important economic partners. Despite their close relationship, New Zealand has chosen not to join Australia as a country, partly due to concerns about the impact on the indigenous Māori population. (Mi # 1032)
