IN THIS ISSUE:
1989 Stamp Collection. Heritage - The Ships Issue. 1990 Commonwealth Games Issue
Amongst many extraordinary events marking New Zealand's 1990 celebrations, the XIVth Commonwealth Games carries a special charge of excitement. As world class competitors hone their
performance, the city of Auckland hums with preparations for the Games, to take place from January 24- February 3, 199.0. To help mark a very special occasion for sports and enthusiasts everywhere, New Zealand Post will release aspecial set ofeight commemorative stamps on November 8, 1989. These will be special souvenirs for hundreds of competitors and administrators, and for many thousands ofvisitors who will come to Auckland to see sporting history being made. The stamps will be on sale at all New Zealand Post outlets from November 8, 1989, until March 6, 1990. When the Games are over, these stamps will take on
that extra significance brought by an association with a fleeting historical event. All eight stamps bear the official logo ofthe XIVth Commonwealth Games, a circle of blue and red bands, the top and bottom blue bands depicting the sea on either side ofAuckland dty, together with the four stars of the Southern Cross. The logo is depicted by itself on one 40c stamp, and official event mascot "Goldie", the Kiwi, features on another 40c stamp.
Stamp designer Heather Arnold ofAuckland has also 'frozen the action' in sporting scenes depicted on the remaining six stamps: Gymnastics (40c); Weightlifting (SOc); Swimming (65c); Cycling (80c); Bowls ($1.00) and Athletics ($1.80). All around the world people thrill to the high drama of a close contest and are touched by the courage of an all out performance. Moments of suspense, hope, anguish; these make the treasured memories ofeach Games. We remember our sporting heroes and heroines as much as for these human
qualities of courage, perseverance, and being 'a good sport', as we do for skill or strength. New Zealand has hosted the Games twice previously since they began in 1930; at Auckland in 1950, and at Christchurch in 1974. The stamps are horizontal in format and measure 35mm x 30mm. Unless sold out earlier, the stamps will remain on sale at the PhiLuelic Bureau {mail orders) and Philatelic Sales Centres until8 November 1990. Heather Arnold has also designed a First Day Cover which may be ordered on a special order form available at all New Zealand Post outletS, from October 12 to November 8, 1989.

Polynesian voyaging canoes and British sailing ships were at the heart of New Zealand's settlement. Both the Maori and many people of European descent can trace their ancestors back to the visits of the first canoes and sailing ships to New Zealand's shores. On March 7, New Zealand Post records the importance of those vessels and their place in the country's history1 with the issue of six stamps.
