📖 Jessie’s Story — By Jan Baxter

Jan has been researching her grandmother Jessie’s story ahead of a trip to her hometown of Crieff, Scotland.

After designing the book herself in Canva, Jan came to us to bring her hard work to life in print. We produced just 30 copies, digitally printed with square stitching and gloss lamination — ready to be shared at the Crieff Library.

Our Senior Account Manager Sarah loved being part of such a meaningful project, helping Jan turn her family history into something tangible to treasure for years to come.

We’re proud to have played a small part in bringing Jessie’s story home. ❤️

While our stamps have been shining at the latest Pride in Print Awards here in New Zealand, Ricky and Matt have been representing Brebner Print on the world stage at the Macau International Stamp Exhibition, held at The Venetian Macao.

It was an incredible opportunity to showcase our specialist printing and embellishing capabilities to an international audience while connecting with postal administrations, philatelic commissioners, and passionate stamp collectors from around the world.
The exhibition was a fantastic success and a real credit to Macao Post, with six days of impressive displays, enthusiastic collectors, and exhibitors from across the globe.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our stand to chat, share ideas, and learn more about what we do. We look forward to building these new relationships and continuing to support the global philatelic community.

Next stop: PhilaTaipei this November!! We can't wait to connect or reconnect with many of you there.

Meet Megan ✨

Behind our secure doors, Megan is hard at work on our digital press, helping bring your ideas to life with precision, care, and a passion for print.

After spending 7 years in Vancouver, Canada, Megan has returned home to New Zealand and is excited to be part of the Brebner Print team.

Her print journey began in Wellington, but after the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake disrupted a promising start in the industry, she took the opportunity to move overseas and pursue both personal and professional growth. During her time with Minuteman Press Tri-Cities in Vancouver, she gained invaluable experience that helped her hit the ground running upon returning home.

Family has always been a strong pull back to the Bay, with her whānau living throughout the region, including a sister at Hohepa. She’s also lucky to have a fiancée from the US who has followed her across the world to make New Zealand home too.

When she’s not creating beautiful print work, Megan enjoys skiing, martial arts, and illustration.

We’re thrilled to have her talent, experience, and energy as part of the Brebner family. 👏

Oops 👀

We've been so busy lately that we've fallen a little behind on keeping our social media up to date and sharing what we've been working on!

Here's a sneak peek at one of our recent projects, a stunning set of stamps produced by our dedicated team. We're incredibly proud of the quality and craftsmanship that went into this job, so much so that we've entered it into the Pride In Print Awards, taking place this Friday night.

Wish us luck! 🤞✨
