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 Ian The Michel Germany specialised catalogue is published in two versions. In German broadly the two volumes cover all the stamps up to 1945 in vol. 1 and then postwar in vol.2. The English version also comes in two volumes but the coverage is different (available separately). Vol. 1 in English covers the North German Confederation, German Empire 1872-1945, German Foreign POs and Colonies, Free City of Danzig, & Memel Territory. Vol. 2 covers Bohemia & Moravia, General Government, Sudetenland, German occupation issues 1939-1945, private issues 1939-1945, Field Post stamps, War & Propaganda forgeries, German local issues from 1945, unofficial issues, the Allied occupatuon of Germany. The retail costs of the latest volumes in German are £88.00 each, and those in English £71.95 each. As a member of the Society you get 20% discount. Postage is extra but I note you live quite close to me so you could collect if you wish to save the postage (about £3.90 per pair of volumes). If you wish to order please e-mail me direct. Best wishes Giles
