| Reverse description | A vibrant pad-printed polychrome design depicting seven anthropomorphic Gumnut Babies — the iconic characters created by Australian author-illustrator May Gibbs — seated along a eucalyptus branch amid gumnuts and gum leaves, rendered faithfully to Gibbs's original whimsical naturalistic style. The composition commemorates the centenary of the characters' debut publication in 1916.
