The principal feature of this design was Mitre Peak which stands at the head of Milford Sound. A better view than the 1898 version, this design shows Mitre Peak with a stylized “tea tree” (Manuka) on the borders. The foliage that is present in the stamp obscures the bottom portion of the mountain where it plunges into the sound. This and the other two denominations that portray mountains are the only bi-coloured engraved stamps in the set. The drawing was made by Mr. J. Fitzgerald.
