Colourful collection: A presentation pack to be issued on October 14 will showcase a green Hong Kong.

The second set of six Green Hong Kong stamp sheetlets will be released on October 14 to mark the 2004 Stamp Expo.

 

The Tourism Series No 2: Green HK sheetlet has several special features, and incorporates a new $10 stamp which forms part of the design.

 

An illustration at the top right hand corner provides a preview of the next new stamp in this series.

 

The stamp and sheetlet have been designed by Jason Chum and are printed in Holland.

 

Other postal products, the presentation pack and serviced first day cover, will also be issued on the same day.

 

The stamp sheetlet and the presentation pack will be displayed at the General, Tsim Sha Tsui, Sha Tin Central and Tsuen Wan Post Offices from September 23.

 

Official First Day Covers at $1 each will go on sale at all post offices on the same day. Advance orders for servicing self-provided souvenir covers will be accepted at all post offices from September 23 to 29.
