Postal Stationery aerogramme hoard covering 1945-1995, which was the start of a serious study into the various printings and usages. Includes GeoVI-era "Letter Cards", even though they are really air letters, complete with different printings, papers, flaps, etc, with a mix of mint and used. New Zeland did not produce pre-paid postal stationery in this era, so companies had to be licensed to sell approved designs (this practice still largely exists). Some of these aerogrammes had special printings to appeal to tourism, Christmas or special events. We even noted a couple of "OHMS" aerogrammes. The one time that postal stationery was produced was in the early 1980’s with flight themes, including Ross Dependency. The items are packed into page protectors, so an exact count is difficult, but there looks to be at least 150 items. There is still no definitive work on these items. Maybe you will be the one to write the book. Ex-Kasper. Estimate =
