Stamps
I have been collecting Australian, Antarctic Territory and Papua New
Guinea stamps since 1966 and have a complete collection of Australian from the
1924 issue, Australian Antarctic Territory from the 1957 Issue and with Papua
New Guinea from the 1952 issue. I collect mint, cancelled, first day covers and
booklets when issued.
I keep them in "Seven Seas Albums" and enjoy looking back from
time to time to see all the different stamps that have been issued.
Both Australia and Papua New Guinea have issued many sets of Orchid Stamps over the years, covering a lot of genera. Below are some of these issues from Papua New Guinea, Australia and around the world.
