Germany & Colonies Philatelic Society
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.

Message: Can anyone explain the attached cover? It was originally franked 12Pf Hitler for transmission via the DDP Niederlande but for some reason this seems to have been counter-manded by the violter cacher 'ueber Dienstpostamt Rotterdam' and a 10c NL stamp used instead. What were the respective roles of the 2 services and why was one preferred over the other here? Many thanks for any ideas.
