New Koala Stamp designs criticized by Adelaide curator
Adelaide Art Gallery director Louie McCubbini, visiting Melbourne, condemned the new fourpenny Koala stamp as dull and lacking design. He urged capable Australian artists to contribute form and style, noting the stamp relied on a composite from various photos rather than a coherent concept. The Post Department examined submissions including photographs and stuffed specimens, but ultimately adopted a composite design integrating selected features from several images.
