Description:
No matter where you live, you can join us tomorrow at 1 p.m. ET to enjoy a talk about the philately of New Zealand from 1855-1955, a country located at great distance from precious stamp-making supplies. Innovative methods were born of necessity, leading New Zealand's postal service to use ingenious techniques to recover and reuse materials, inadvertently adding to the richness of the country's philatelic material. Robert P. Odenweller will speak on this topic at the 9th Annual Maynard Sundman Lecture here at the museum, but many people will tune in online to watch the live webcast.
