I believe the NZ tourist board authorised 10 of these stamp cinderellas sometime in the 1940's. Printed in Dunedin.

Years and years ago, I was the South Island engineer for a national company, and fished in and around the 'Dart' on a regular basis. I still fish it now when I go south.

However, the stamps may have done too good a job.......The place always seems to be full of tourists when I'm fishing!!

Huanga.

Beautiful cinderellas! And usually described as being from 1937.

Quite sought-after still in NZ. I bought a set a while back to extract the "Mitre Peak" one for my "Milford Sound" collection, then sold the remnants.
