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 Alan – the unit cachet was applied to confirm the sender’s entitlement to use the field post and reads ‘S.B. Bat. Hering / 2. Komp.’ The S.B. stands for Soldaten Brief and the unit is the same as shown in the sender’s address. Best wishes, Giles.
