Kiwi Stamp (New Zealand)

Whangara - Piha Beach - Sandfly Beach - Cape Kidnappers (Left to Right)

When saw for these stamps, the word of “Kiwi Stamp” made me very curious as the name was so special and cute with using the word of fruits which is "Kiwi".

As usual, search online to find out why it calls “Kiwi Stamp”.

During the First World War, the name “Kiwi” for New Zealand soldiers came into general use and a giant kiwi (now known as the Bulford Kiwi), was craved on the chalk hill above Sling Camp in England. Use has now spread so that now all New Zealanders overseas and at home are commonly referred to as “Kiwis”- Wikipedia
