The "bird theme" was continued for the 1965 Health stamp issue. For the first time since 1934, the year of issue was included in the designs.

The birds selected were the kaka (parrot) and the piwakawaka (fantail). The proceeds of the 'Health' value of health stamps were donated to the Children's Health Camps movement.

And what a lovely and apt slogan - Children's Health is New Zealand's Wealth.

For the first time since 1934, the year of issue was included in the designs.

Thank you Maria.
