Norfolk Island is a small island in the Pacific Ocean located between Australia, New Zealand, and New Caledonia, 1,412 kilometers directly east of mainland Australia's Evans Head, and about 900 kilometers from Lord Howe Island. The island is part of the Commonwealth of Australia. Together with two neighboring islands, it forms one of Australia's external territories. It has 1,796 inhabitants living on a total area of about 35 km2. Its capital is Kingston.
Unfortunately, no stamps on this postcard, only postmark for payed postage. Australia Post has taken over Norfolk Island post, and Norfolk Island stamps are no longer valid. And they use this ugly postmark in transitional period.
Thank you
