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.
Hi. I've acquired what i think is a 1923 200 mark stamp with a 2m mark overprint. I know the value seems to vary wildly but i can't seem to find anything to tell me what the vertical bars are. If anyone could help me out I would be grateful. Thanks
