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: The gum used on this block contains sulphur, whilst some blocks have apparently survived unscathed, many more have had the gum removed. Ultimately the gum can affect the paper making it brittle. Clearly how it is mounted and where the album is kept will determine the degree of damage that can potentially happen. regards Nigel
