A stamp issue from the NZ Post Office in 1973 featuring four different classes from the 1880s to the 1950s. From memory, 3 cents was the cost of a standard letter within NZ, 4c an airmail letter; adjusted for inflation, in today's prices this is only 35 cents and 46 cents respectively, so in real terms the Post Office has put the prices up a lot since then - any wonder they are losing business!
