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: Dear Dom, I think the differences are down to the scanning, which has to be of fairly poor resolution to fit the requirements of the Message Board attachments. I can't see any real evidence of difference in the mustache or chin and the appearance of spectacles is definitely down to scanning. The printing of the used card does seem to be of better quality, maybe the unused one is a later, worn printing? Philip
