Centennial Stamp Issue
.Sir,--No doubt the designers of stamps are people of serious purpose, while philatelists are equally unmoved by a spirit of foolish levity, but I feel that the Westland centennial issue with that fine virile figure in the foreground and the caption, “The gold-digger, 1860-1960,” could be fittingly completed with allegorical significance by the insertion in, say, the left-hand corner of a small, purposeful-looking blonde.—Yours, etc., I.S.T. July 1, 1960.
