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: Giles seems to have got most of it. My theory had the Swedish post office sucking its collective teeth and saying ”Jag vet inte” (I don’t know) when asked if the return card was still valid, especially in view of the damaged 100 Mk adhesive. 20 öre does indeed seem to be the correct rate for a European postcard right up until the late ‘30s.
