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 Henry, The handstamp is a standard incoming airmail forwarding endorsement mark applied at Post Office 5 in Bremen. Such handstamps were routinely used in Germany in the 1920/30s and usually at one particular Post Office in a town/city which had a nearby airport. Regards Giles
