Modern Australia collectors might be aware of Colleen's Oz Pictormark blog (http://www.ozpictormarks.blogspot.com.au), which has noted that the postmark listings on Australia Post's website have not been updated for sometime. It appears that today, the listings were finally updated; although frustratingly many postmarks don't have first day dates.

Some of these have been advertised in the January-February Stamp Bulletin, but again without issue dates. Two months on and I am still waiting on a letter from Hobart to clarify the issue date of their new first day of issue postmarker!

March-April 2015 New Issues
Yesterday, Australia Post updated its listing of new issues as follows:
No images have been seen of these issues, though the 14/4 issue is expected to be in the same square shape as last year's WWI Centenary issue. I also expect the Transport issue to be similar to the Capital Cities Transport issue a few years ago, but featuring some more unusual forms of transport.
The next Stamp Bulletin is expected to be uploaded any day soon.
