Stamps For Papua-New
THE Territories of Papua and New Guinea, which have been using Australian postage stamps since the Pacific war, may soon be giving joy to the world’s philatelists.
The Australian External Territories Department has been making certain in quiries in Sydney concerning stamp de signs.
P-NG is the only Pacific Territory that has no stamps of its own. Even small groups like the Tokelaus, and Pitcairn Island, are cashing-in on the stamp collecting craze.
Before the war both Papua and New
Guinea had issues. Those of the Man dated Territory were uninspiring but the pictorial Papuan stamps were much sought after. Stamps from both these old issues should be valuable now.
