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.
I have a nice little card from Leo Hornberger Frankfurt am Main dated 1943. He is down as " Referent fur Sammlergruppen Abzeichen und Plaketten."
Now is he a speaker or a Judge for the local badge and plaque collectors or is he one of the same
