The year 2014 marked the 50th anniversary of the first year of operation of the Germany & Colonies Philatelic Society following the amalgamation of the Germany & Colonies Stamp Club (established 1947) and the Stockton German Study Group (1960).
The G&CPS celebrated its inaugural year in 1964 with the first Germania Posta philatelic exhibition held in Stockton.
On behalf of the management committee, and I am sure all members of the Society, I would like to extend our profound sympathy to all our US members and others who may be suffering as a result of the tragic events of this week in the USA.
