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 Mike, Castrop-Rauxel in the Ruhr used the slogan 'Die Industriestadt im Grünen'(the green industrial city) to promote itself as more than just a centre of heavy industry particularly coal-mining, drawing attention to its many green spaces and other toursist attractions. The city still uses the slogan but now modified to 'Europastadt im Grünen'. Best wishes Giles
