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: I notice that the hand stamp on the reverse side is from Kloster Andechs in the Starnberg region of Bavaria. There is a wooded area beside the Abbey that may hold a clue. Other references to 'Taferl' appear to be places where a miracle has occurred. One of the paths/roads indicated on Goggle Maps within this wooded area is named Kientalstraße. Good luck with your research! Carl
