World Stamp News

World stamps
Regular readers will know that we try to inform you of every new U.S.P.S. stamp release, but there are a lot of countries out there, and a lot of stamp releases that we never mention. When I need to know what's going on in the world-wide stamp scene, I go to World Stamp News. Sometimes there will be a stamp that, even though I can't use it for postage, I just cannot live without it. I think that the round kiwi stamps from New Zealand may fit that equation.

Where did the stamp photo come from? I would like to pin it to Pinterest, but would like to include a source. Thanks!

Well, rats! Here I was merrily going along thinking I didn't need any more stamps from New Zealand right now... and now you've got ME thinking I need the round ones too!

Thanks alot, friend.

They're beautiful. I am fond of kiwis--especially the babies. Round stamps are eye-catching, for sure.

Have I sent something to you with the Round Kiwi stamps? I can't recall...

April- You did send me a letter with a round kiwi and I loved it! Obviously, I wrote this post a while ago.
