Australia Post issues a small number of stamps for Norfolk Island each year. For flora and fauna collectors, it’s a bonanza of beautiful stamps.
Initially, I listed Norfolk with Australia’s stamps, but as time moved along, I realised they needed their own listing. Like many things in life, this project has evolved far beyond what I envisioned at the beginning of the new year.
