Hello Collectors

Welcome to last edition of the Stamp Bulletin in 2025.

Stamp Bulletin 398 begins with a first-look at our 2025 Collection of Australian Stamps featuring all our releases for the year available from the 1 December 2025.

Our first stamp release on 28 October, The King’s Birthday, celebrates His Majesty King Charles III 77th birthday with a stamp design in ode to King Charles’ first visit as the King from 18-23 October 2024.

On 3 November 2025, Christmas -Secular is available, where everyone joins in the fun of Christmas on Phillip Island. Illustrated by Andrew McIntosh, the stamp series depicts Santa visiting his friends on Victoria’s Phillip Island, a haven for wildlife and home to the famous Penguin Parade.

Our Christmas – Religious stamp series, also released on 3 November 2025, is a series of drawings from artist Justin O’Brien. It represents three traditional scenes; the Annunciation to the Virgin, the Virgin Enthroned and the Visitation.

Stamp Bulletin 398 also includes Christmas gift ideas with the likes of Stitch and Looney Tunes Stamp Packs, as well as a unique collection of medallions celebrating 100 years of Ford being in Australia.

Information on the Brisbane Stamp & Coin Show held on 8-9 November 2025 can also be found in this Bulletin, with a sneak-peek at exclusive PNCs and Minisheets available only at the show.

We wish all our collectors a safe and happy holiday and we look forward to seeing you in the New Year.
