New Stamps For Norfolk Is.
Preparations now are well ad vanced for a new issue of the stamps of Norfolk Island, about November of this year.
It is believed that the issue will comprise denominations of Id. 2d, and 9d: and the designs, in their portrayal of local flora, will be the first of this kind issued by Norfolk Island.
The Id and the 2d stamps probably will carry designs showing the
hibiscus flower of Philip Is.—a tiny islet off the coast of Norfolk Island —and the Norfolk Island hibiscus; while the design now favoured for the 9d stamp shows the Cereus flower and a re
production of Annogoni’s portrait of the Quean. A photograph of this design is reproduced here with. The Id and 2d stamps will be in colour.
