The four maximum cards (pre-paid postcards) are a great way to share the story of Split Enz who was New Zealand’s first internationally recognised band. Revered and influential to this day, they were true originals who created their own sound and style of performance from the time they formed as Split Ends in 1972.
Each card has a gummed stamp affixed and includes pre-paid postage to anywhere in the world.
This stamp issue highlights an iconic Kiwi band in celebration of New Zealand Music Month. Click here for more information.
