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: Hello Roger - I think I can help in part at least - I imagine PLESKA must be Pskow, capital of the Pskow oblast (SW of Novgorod), known as Pleskau when occupied by Germany. See Michel Specialised Vol. 1 under Rußland. If Schimkaitschen was a Zweigstelle (branch office), then it may only have been a small village or suburb office. Cheers Giles
