Dear Collectors 

Welcome to the fi nal edition of the Bulletin for 2010 and my fi rst as 

Manager of Philatelic. Over the past few years I have looked after 

the Australian Stamp Issue Program and its related products, as well 

as managing the various marketing activities and promotions for the 

group. I look forward to my new role with enthusiasm and welcome 

the opportunity it affords me in getting to know our many collectors, 

dealers and general stamp enthusiasts. 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Noel Leahy for his 

contribution to the philatelic business and the development of a team 

of very talented and professional people. The group I have inherited 

includes designers and product developers that will continue to push 

Australian stamps into the forefront of the philatelic world and I view 

the future with excitement, but fi rst we need to get ready for the 

coming holiday season and view the remaining issues of 2010. 

One of the fi nal stamp issues for this year captures our sporting spirit 

and goes toward identifying who we are as a nation. The Melbourne 

Cup is an Australian event that also invites international interest and 

is rightly tagged as “the race that stops the nation”. The race itself 

only runs for around three minutes, but the excitement begins to build 

when the Spring Carnival is launched and continues right up until the 

release of the barrier on the fi rst Tuesday in November. On the day 

of the Cup, if you aren’t attending, you will probably be watching and 

checking to see where you came in the sweep! This year we celebrate 

150 years of the Melbourne Cup with four stamps, including one 

which features an illustration of the new cup with the remaining three 

stamps presenting some of the champions of this famous event. 

Whilst Christmas holds traditional celebrations for many and a 

traditional Christmas stamp issue, the magic of the season comes to 

life for children when they write their letters to Santa with promises 

of good intentions and an expectation of the gifts to be received. 

Our Dear Santa stamp issue illustrates the importance to children 

of this simple task. With some of the things listed, it’s a wonder 

that sleigh ever gets off the ground. For those with a liking for our 

Christmas Island stamp designs there will be two new Christmas 

stamps released. 

This edition brings you the 2010 Collection of Australian Stamps and 

the 2010 Territories Collection of Stamps − a gift for any occasion. 

Why not grab one for yourself and one for a friend. This beautifully 

presented book is a delight to read and a valuable collecting resource. 

You will also fi nd an invitation for Australian residents to participate 

in our annual Stamp Poll with your copy of the Bulletin. There’s a great 

prize to be won and the chance to have your say about Australian 

stamp designs and subjects, so I encourage all of you to enter. 

Best wishes to you for the festive season from all of us in Philatelic. 

Michael Zsolt, 

Manager, Philatelic

4 | stamp bulletin australia | no. 307 | November– December 2010 

The Melbourne Cup has been raced annually at Flemington 

Racecourse since 1861. Its popularity arose from the handicap 

conditions in a race run over two miles for horses of at least three 

years of age. At the race’s establishment, some claimed its handicap 

conditions would encourage mediocrity on the track. How wrong 

they were, for the Melbourne Cup soon became the centrepiece of 

the Australian racing calendar and it has long since been known as 

“the race that stops a nation”. By the early 1880s, it attracted around 

one-third of Melbourne’s population at the time. Today, it draws a 

capacity crowd of 120,000 on the fi rst Tuesday of each November, 

while several million others follow the race on television screens 

around the nation. It is a special Australian celebration at race 

meetings, parties and work breaks around the nation. 

The three winners featured in the stamp issue span the history of 

the Cup. Carbine was the 1890 winner and one of Australia’s greatest 

racehorses ever. Setting a weight record for the race, and in the 

fastest time to that date, he symbolised strength and courage. In 

1930, Phar Lap lifted the spirits of a nation feeling the malaise of 

the Great Depression. The big chestnut survived an attempt on his 

life in the week prior to his Melbourne Cup triumph, and died amid 

controversy following his Agua Caliente Handicap win in 1932.

Saintly galloped to victory over a strong fi eld in 1996. Bred, trained 

and part owned by Bart Cummings, Saintly is well connected with the 

man who has dominated the modern era of the Melbourne Cup and 

known as the “Cups King” for his unrivalled 12 wins. The other stamp 

in the issue features the Melbourne Cup. In 2010, the design and size 

of “loving cup” returns to James Steeth’s 1930 design for the revered 

sporting trophy.

DEAR SANTA

Maxicards (2) 


There is a prestige fi rst day cover 

with decoration, two embellished 

sheetlets of 10 and a design in 

the gutter of the stamp sheet. 



1667241 Gutter strip 

In the weeks leading up to Christmas, Australian children write letters 

to Father Christmas, or Santa Claus, requesting what they would like 

for Christmas. Santa enjoys reading the letters, often ho-hoing over 

his correspondents’ requests. On receiving these letters Santa makes 

a list of the presents he will bring to children throughout the world in 

time for the Christmas festivities. 

We like to think of Santa as a plump, jolly white-bearded man attired 

in a red coat with white collar and cuffs. This image of Santa has its 

origins in nineteenth-century United States of America. The origins of 

Father Christmas, however, may be traced back to much earlier times. 

The primary inspiration for Santa Claus is the fourth-century Greek 

Christian bishop St Nicholas, who was famous for giving gifts to 

the poor.

1667350 Prestige fi rst day cover (Limited edition 10,000) 

1667182 Booklet of 20 

Originally St Nicholas’ feast day was celebrated on the 6 December, 

and was marked by exchanging presents. In the sixteenth and 

seventeenth century the date was changed and Christmas Eve 

became the time for gift-giving in European countries. Today 

St Nicholas is the patron saint of the Dutch and Russian capitals, 

Amsterdam and Moscow.

CHRISTMAS ISLAND CHRISTMAS 



60c ......... Golden Bosunbird 

$1.30...... Hoya vine & Ridley’s Orchid 

1661182 Booklet (10 x 60c) 

1661122 Sheetlet (5 x $1.30) 

In 2010 we continue our light-hearted Christmas Island Christmas 

series, with Rob Kiely again applying his brush to the subject, 

linking aspects of the island’s natural heritage to the tropical 

Christmas theme. 

In the 60-cent stamp design, the Golden Bosunbird (Phaethon 

lepturus) surveys the island from above to fi nd a place at which 

to deliver its Christmas gift. Elsewhere known as the White-tailed 

Tropicbird, this seabird has a distinguishing golden hue to its plumage. 

A black streak extends across each eye, and it has black bars on its 

upper wings, but its long golden tail makes it most distinctive. 

The $1.30 stamp design continues the narrative of the Christmas gift 

delivery. In the foreground sits a gift bound with the vine Hoya aldrichii 

and the Ridley’s Orchid, Brachypeza archytas, the Bosunbird has 

carried in its beak. The hoya vine has clusters of small pink fl owers. 

Ridley’s Orchid grows low on the trunks of large trees on Christmas 

Island, with stems of around 15–30 centimetres.

CHRISTMAS 2010 


55c ......... Madonna and child 

$1.30...... Angel and shepherds 

1662220 Maxicards (2) 



Christmas celebrates the anniversary of the birth of Jesus in the 

town of Bethlehem over two millennia ago. Today this Christian feast 

day is marked by church-going, festivities, present-giving, special 

meals and the wish for peace on Earth. 

Bruce Goold’s illustrations tell the familiar Christmas story. When 

Jesus was born, an angel told the good news to shepherds tending 

their fl ocks. On hearing the news the shepherds went to Bethlehem 

to see the newborn babe. Three wise men, bearing gifts, also came 

from the East to visit the baby Jesus. 

Goold’s artwork captures the essence of the Christmas story. 

He depicts the baby Jesus wrapped in swaddling cloth laying in 

a manger, normally used for feeding animals, surrounded by his 

parents, Mary and Joseph. The artwork also shows the angel 

announcing to the shepherds the good news that Christ the Lord 

has been born in Bethlehem.

TALKING STAMPS 

WITH RICHARD BRECKON 

The Melbourne Cup Cu up uup on stamps 

The 1960 fi five ve pence pencee e( (5d) stamp particularly particul cularly 

poor weather by three 

issued to mark the 100th 00 h running i lengths. l h The jockey in 1934 was 

of the Melbourne Cup involved Darby Munro, who was depicted 

considerable controversy. The on the 22c stamp in the 1981 

suggestion to honour the event Sports Personalities issue. Munro 

came from the Victoria Racing also rode Cup winners Sirius 

Club. After some resistance (1944) and Russia (1946). 

associated with concerns about 

gambling, the Post Offi ce agreed The 1978 Horse Racing stamps 

to a stamp. 

proved popular with the racing 

fraternity and supplies of 35c, 50c 

and 55c stamps were inadequate 

necessitating a reprint of all three. 

(It is unusual for non-defi nitive 

stamps to be reprinted.) 

When the Melbourne Cup stamp 

was issued, there were the 

expected objections and some 

religious leaders even called for 

the stamp to be withdrawn from 

sale or for public boycotting. 

The stamp was designed by Frank 

Manley, who had recently retired 

as chief artist/engraver at the Note 

Printing Branch and had joined 

the Post Offi ce’s Stamp Advisory 

Committee. Manley’s design 

depicted Archer and jockey John 

Cutts (the winning combination 

of the fi rst two Cups), and a 

representation of the race trophy. 

The 1978 Horse Racing stamp 

issue featured four famous 

racehorses, including Pharlap and 

Peter Pan, chosen in consultation 

with racecaller Bill Collins OAM 

(1928–1997). The stamps were 

the fi rst to be designed by Brian 

Clinton, one of Australia’s most 

prolifi c stamp designers. 

Perhaps the most legendary and 

charismatic horse in Australian 

racing, Phar Lap won the 1930 

Melbourne Cup. Starting the race 

as an 11/8 favourite, he became 

the shortest priced winner in the 

Cup’s history. Peter Pan won 

in 1932 after almost falling and 

would also win the 1934 Cup in 


Following the launch of Australia’s 

Racing Hall of Fame in 2001, 

Australia Post issued Champions 

of the Turf in 2002, comprising 

fi ve 45c stamps featuring horses 

that were inducted into the Hall 

of Fame that year: Wakeful, 

Rising Fast, Manikato, Might and 

Power, and Sunline. The stamp 

illustrations, the work of Otto 

Schmidinger, depicted different 

moments in a race, and convey 

the speed, colour, energy and 

atmosphere of a race meeting. 

Two of these horses were 

Melbourne Cup winners, these 

being Rising Fast and Might and 

Power. In 1954 Rising Fast won 

the Caulfi eld Cup, the WS Cox 

Plate and the Melbourne Cup, 

making it the only horse in race 

history to win the treble in the 

same year. 

The 2007 Australia Post Australian 

Legends celebrated six greats of 

horse racing – Scobie Breasley 

AM, Bart Cummings AM, Roy 

Higgins MBE, Bob Ingham AO, 

George Moore OBE and John 

Tapp OAM. 

Bart Cummings (the (h (the “Cups “C 

“Cu 

King”) trained an astounding 12 

Melbourne Cup winners - Light 

Fingers (1965), Galilee (1966), Red 

Handed (1967), Think Big (1974 

and 1975), Gold and Black (1977), 

Hyperno (1979), Kingston Rule 

(1990), Let’s Elope (1991), Saintly 

(1996), Rogan Josh (1999) and 

Viewed (2008). 

Jockey Roy Higgins rode two 

Melbourne Cup winners – Light 

Fingers (1965) and Red Handed 

(1967). Light Fingers is depicted 

on one of the two 2007 Legends 

stamps issued for Higgins. 

With the 2010 150th Melbourne 

Cup stamp issue three Cup 

winners have been honoured, two 

of them never having appeared on 

a stamp before – Carbine (1890), 

Phar Lap (1930) and Saintly (1996). 

Phar Lap’s bloodline can be traced 

back to Carbine through both his 

sire (father) and dam (mother). 

Although Saintly was one of 12 

Cup wins for Bart Cummings, 

the horse is the trainer’s most 

beloved.
