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 Charles - the portrait is of Bismarck and the letters are DNVP which stand for the Deutschnationale Volkspartei. It's a 'stamp' for affixing to a party membership card - see for example http://www.jmberlin.de/1933/en/2013/03/01/max-henius-dnvp-membership-card/ Cheers Giles
