Cancelled six gummed stamps on sheet.
Goldie is an iconic yellow-beaked, black-shirt-wearing kiwi, and is the mascot of the New Zealand Team.
He has been part of the fabric of New Zealand Olympic and Commonwealth Teams since the 1980s. In recent years Goldie has been taking a break, but he’s back and better than ever for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, ready to cheer on The New Zealand Team as they take on the rest of the world.
In June a New Zealand school teacher was selected to join the New Zealand Olympic Team in Paris as the iconic mascot.
This Goldie stamp sheet celebrates the epic efforts of Aotearoa New Zealand’s Olympic athletes. Click here for more information.
