Dear Collector, 

Our Centenary of Federation year is drawing to a close. For 

such a significant year, my sense is that the public focus and 

celebration of the event has been a little disappointing. 

Perhaps the Olympics absorbed too much of our national 

spirit; perhaps some, mistakenly, saw it as belonging to 

politicians rather than to the people. 

I feel there is a risk of a lost opportunity. I know that 

when I saw the scant archival film of the events in 1901, I 

wished more had been preserved for future generations to 

enjoy and appreciate. Now that I have grandchildren, the 

question arises how can I best leave them some record, 

some legacy, of this important year. 

I am proud of the wonderful range of Australia Post 

products that commemorate the Centenary of Federation. 

I want to commend them to you as a perfect way to 

remember the year and to share your memories with 

future generations. 

The 2001 Collection of Australian Stamps is, of course the 

philatelic record of the year, and contains our Centenary of 

Federation stamps. 

Stamping The Nation, a highly readable history of 

Australia’s first 100 years, uses stamps to tell the story of 

Australia’s development. This book has received excellent 

reviews from many quarters and I believe it will become a 

treasured classic. 

The Royal Australian Mint has issued a wonderful series 

of commemorative coins, released progressively during the 

year. Now the final sets have been issued and the complete 

20 coin collection is also available. Or you may wish to 

collect only those coins which relate to your state. 

Whichever option interests you, the coins are a magnificent 

keepsake of this important year. 

It would be a shame to let this significant anniversary 

slip by without marking it in some way. I have suggested 

some wonderful mementos that can inform, entertain and 

pass on the memories. There are other ways to remember 

the year. I think the important thing is for everyone to do 

something. It’s not too late. 

As this is the final edition for the year, I would like to 

wish all readers and their families a joyful and peaceful 

Christmas and a happy New year. 

Until next year, 

David Maiden, Manager, Philatelic Group 

Australia Post introduced an annual Stamp 

Collecting Month in 1993 with the aim of 

raising young people’s awareness of the hobby 

of stamp collecting 

The themes for Stamp Collecting Month 

issues are selected with children’s interests in 

mind and designed to appeal to young 

children. Over the years the issues have ranged 

from Dinosaurs to Zoos, Pets, Planet Ocean, 

Creatures of the Night and Space. 

This year’s issue of six stamps and two 

miniature sheets is an illustrative fantasy on 

Australian bush life in the tradition of the ever 

popular creations of May Gibbs, Dorothy Wall, 

2 October 2001 

Ruth Park and Norman Lindsay. The engaging 

and whimsical images – showing a koala’s first 

birthday party – are by prize-winning 

Australian children’s book illustrator and 

publisher, Roland Harvey. 

There are gummed and self-adhesive stamps 

(a booklet of ten and rolls of 100) and a pair of 

miniature sheets in the issue. The miniature 

sheets show different views of the birthday 

festivities. As well as the stamps and miniature 

sheets, the issue includes a stamp pack, 

collector pack and a set of six maximum cards. 

A Wild Babies sticker and activity book – also 

created by Roland Harvey – completes the issue.

Setting the scene 

It’s Kevin Koala’s birthday and he has invited all 

his friends to a party in his towering gum tree 

deep in the Australian bush. Kevin – sitting at 

the centre of the action – is surrounded by 

assorted sweets including his special boroniaflavoured 

cake with pink gumnut icing. 

Meanwhile his little bush friends arrive from 

far and wide to join the festivities. Mrs Goanna 

wheels baby Gregory in his pram while the 

Sugar Glider family prefers a more aerial route. 

Down below, little Courtney Kangaroo and 

James Wombat, under the watchful eyes of their 

parents, clamber up a ladder to join the party, 

while Jessica Platypus and her mum ponder just 

how they’ll manage the ascent. 

Also there for the fun and games is Jack (a 

cockatoo) who joins his dad in a jig, dancing 

and squawking raucously to the Bilby and 

Antechinus bush band. 

Emily Echidna and Kyle Kookaburra are 

enjoying the celebrations. Chloe, a ring-tailed 

possum, is feeling a little queasy after one too 

many grevillea-leaf cupcakes. 

Approaching from a tree limb are the ants. 

Although they were not invited they are hard at 

work, devising a strategy to reach the sticky 

delights of the birthday feast.

Bush musicians 

Screeching loudly, a 

young sulphur-crested 

cockatoo and his father 

dance a jig to the music 

of the Bilby and 

Antechinus bush band. 

Possum party 

A ring-tailed possum, 

her baby clinging to her 

back, swings down to 

join the party. Two other 

small ring-tailed 

possums are already 

feasting on the treats. 

Kevin’s cake 

The hero of the day, 

Kevin Koala, enjoys his 

special birthday feast. 

How will he ever return 

to a diet of plain gum 

leaves? 

stamp collecting is wild, baby! 

Bilby gifts 

The little bilbies gather 

together with their gifts 

at the foot of the big gum 

tree. With them are 

Joshua Crocodile and 

Emma Emu. One little 

koala, having slipped on 

his way up, plummets 

head over heels 

back to earth. 

Jumping high 

A leaping mother 

wallaby, joey in pouch, 

encourages her young 

wallaby to hang on tight 

as she makes her ascent. 

Beside her an echidna 

urges her baby on as he 

clings to the ladder 

beside a little platypus. 

James Wombat 

Mother wombat does 

her best to help James 

up the ladder. Wombats 

are ground-dwelling 

animals and efficient 

burrowers. They are not 

at their best when it 

comes to climbing trees!

Roland Harvey, the illustrator 

If you believe in destiny, you’ll probably agree 

that Roland Harvey was destined to illustrate 

the Wild Babies stamp issue. After all Harvey’s 

passion for illustration developed alongside his 

love for the bush, in fact he says that his first 

publications were ‘…exercise books with bits of 

leaf, fern, feathers and sometimes whole logs 

stuck in them’. 

Or consider Harvey’s description of his own 

publishing endeavours, ‘We try to publish 

books that excite kids’ imaginations and make 

them say “I haven’t seen a book like that 

before”’. Substitute ‘stamp’ for ‘book’ and 

Harvey could be describing Australia Post’s 

aims for Stamp Collecting Month. 

Children the world over already know 

Roland Harvey as the creator of the beloved 

Belvedere. Philatelists know him too. Some will 

recognise his name and realise that Kevin isn’t 

the first of Harvey’s koala creations to appear 

on a stamp. 

Roland Harvey designed and illustrated the 

joint commemorative stamp issues for 

Australia and the USA (Koala and Eagle, 

January 1998) and Australia and New Zealand 

(Koala and Kiwi, June 1998). He also designed 

the 40c Recreation stamp in the Living Together 

definitive range (February and March 1988). 

Children of all ages will agree that Roland 

Harvey’s passion for the bush and his desire 

to stimulate kids’ imaginations shine in every 

element of the stamps and miniature sheets. 

They have an irrepressibly fun atmosphere 

that seems to invite us to enter the fantasy 

world and celebrate Kevin’s special day with 

his native animal friends. 

Books and stamps share many qualities. 

They are enjoyed on many levels. They 

capture our imaginations. They tell stories. 

Just as a single book can inspire a lifetime’s 

love of reading, a single stamp can grab a 

child’s interest and start the process of 

6 

collecting, a hobby that can last a lifetime. 

Wherever Kevin and his mates find 

themselves: from well established collections 

to collections yet to be, their fun filled antics 

are sure to bring smiles to our faces for many 

years to come. 

Miniature sheets 

The miniature sheets – each with three of the 

six stamps – show different views of the 

acivities and are designed to be viewed 

together. On the upper miniature sheet, Kevin 

Koala is the centre of attention. James Wombat 

and his mum take centre stage in the lower 

miniature sheet.

Self-adhesive products 

Covers 

There is a cover for gummed stamps and selfadhesive 

stamps, and one cover for each 

miniature sheet. The set comprises four covers 

(one each gummed and self-adhesive, and two 

miniature sheets). 

Sheet layout and gutter strips 

The stamps are printed in sheets of 50 in two 

modules of 25, with three designs per sheet: 

stamps from the upper miniature sheet (1 2 & 

3) on one sheet, the remaining stamps (4 5 & 6) 

on another sheet. This creates two gutter strips 

designated ‘koala’ and ‘wombat respectively. 

There is no special text or design in the gutters.

Christmas Island Fungi 

2001 2001 

Fungi are flowerless plants. The larger species 

of fungi alone are at least as numerous as the 

flowering plants. Fungi grow in a beautiful 

diversity of colour and form. Completely 

lacking in chlorophyll, fungi are unable to 

photosynthesise their own food. Instead 

fungi feed by ingesting nutrients from dead 

or living organic matter. 

A mushroom or toadstool is the fruiting 

body of a fungus. The mushroom’s function 

is to produce spores and to provide the 

mechanical means for spore distribution. 

For fungi, spores, rather than seeds, are the 

means of reproduction. 

Different kinds of fungi prefer different 

habitats. Some grow only on dead wood, 

others around the base of trees, some only 

amongst grass or out of moss beds. In fact, 

fungi are found in almost all environments. 

Contrary to folklore, there is no simple 

test to determine if a fungus is safe to eat. 

Never taste a found mushroom unless you 

can positively identify it. 

The stamps 

$1.00 Chaetocalathus semisupinus is a pale, 

delicate, small stemless mushroom that 

grows on the underside of rotting wood. The 

top of the cap is attached to the wood, so that 

the gills face down. 

$1.50 Pycnoporus sanguineus is sometimes 

called the orange-bracket or cinnabar 

fungus. It has a flattened, shelf-like shape 

and grows singly or in small groups.

The stamps were illustrated by Celia Rosser, one 

of Australia’s leading botanical artists. Her 

previous designs for Australia Post include 

Australian Fungi 1981 and Australia Day 1990.

AIDS Congress 

Pre-stamped envelope 

10 

Sixth International Congress on AIDS 

in Asia and the Pacific, Melbourne. 

Australia 45c 

This pre-stamped envelope commemorates the 

Sixth International Congress on AIDS in Asia 

and the Pacific (ICAAP), being held at the 

Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre 

in October 2001. 

AIDS Congresses enable people to share 

experiences and knowledge, and help focus 

public and media attention on the growing 

severity of the epidemic. 

The theme of this congress is “Breaking 

down barriers”. 

Congress organisers say that “HIV demands 

from us all a unified response. No one person, 

government or scientist can do what needs to 

be done. They can only achieve real success 

when working with others. The barriers that 

stop us working together must fall.” 

The design symbolises the breaking down of 

barriers. The red ribbon is the international 

symbol of AIDS awareness. 

The envelope design was conceived and 

illustrated by Nigel Buchanan, Sydney.

In addition to the pre-stamped envelopes 

previewed in Bulletin 261, Australia Post 

produced Special Event Souvenir (SES) sheets 

for the Goodwill Games which were held in 

Brisbane from 29 August to 9 September 2001. 

The designs for the sheetlets of 10 x 45c 

(shown below) were not available in time for

Christmas 2001 

Our Christmas 2001 issue features a modern 

interpretation of the late medieval illuminated 

manuscript, the Wharncliffe Hours. 

The designs by Beth McKinlay and Symone 

Lambert of Australia Post’s Design Studio build 

on four exquisite miniatures from the manuscript. 

By using contemporary typography and 

design they have brought the traditional 

Christmas images into the modern era. 

The stamps 

Adoration of the Magi 

The miniature of the Adoration of the Magi, 

showing the three wise men offering the Christ 

child precious gifts, relates to Matthew 2, 1-11. 

Flight into Egypt 

This miniature relates to Matthew 2, 13-15. It 

shows Joseph leading an ass bearing the Virgin 

Mary and Christ child as they escape from 

Judaea into Egypt.

The aerogramme 

This design is also based on miniatures from the 

Wharncliffe Hours. The illustration area shows 

the Nativity. The stamp area shows the Virgin 

holding the baby Jesus. This image is taken from 

the initial ‘O’ of the prayer to the Virgin which 

begins ‘Obsecro Te’ (I beseech thee).

Thames & Hudson, London 1981. 

The Wharncliffe Hours 

This illuminated manuscript from late fifteenth century France 

is one of the treasures of the National Gallery of Victoria, 

Melbourne. 

The manuscript focuses on prayers to the Virgin Mary, 

which are organised into sections to be recited at the eight 

canonical hours of the day. The book’s size, just 17.8 x 12.7 

cm, allowed its pious owner to carry it for personal devotions. 

The artist who painted the miniatures in this book is known 

only by the name of Maître François. A well-known illuminator 

of the time, Maître François decorated many other manuscripts 

for members of the French nobility. The Wharncliffe Hours was 

named for its later nineteenth century owner, the Earl of 

Wharncliffe. The book was acquired by the National Gallery of 

Victoria in 1920 with funds from the Felton Bequest.

Christmas 

T 

he Wharncliffe Hours, an illustrated prayer book dating from the late 

fifteenth century, is one of the treasures of the National Gallery of Victoria, 

Melbourne, acquired in 1920 with funds from the Felton Bequest. This illuminated 

manuscript was made in France for the private devotions of an unknown patron. 

The text was hand-written in a cursive Latin script on fine vellum, a thin, light 

animal skin. Prayers to the Virgin Mary, to be recited at the eight canonical hours 

of the day, form the basis of the textual devotions. This beautiful manuscript is 

illuminated with forty-one detailed paintings or miniatures, the work of a 

celebrated artist known as the Maître François. 

Details of two miniatures from the Wharncliffe Hours, 

depicting the Adoration of the Magi and 

the Flight into Egypt, appear on the stamps.

important year in Australia’s history. 

The collection is available in two editions,

Deluxe edition, the content is identical. Each 

collection includes full colour pages with 

photographs, illustrations and detailed 

background information for every issue along

Personalise your stamps with life’s greatest moments. 

Sarah was so looking forward to Christmas. 

She’d had a busy year. She’d got a new baby brother, was 

flowergirl at her Aunty’s wedding, and she’d had to 

help Grandpa blow out the candles on his cake. And 

with all the cards mailed to family and friends here and 

overseas, she knew the wait was nearly over!
