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: An interesting query ! I think the most likely explanation is that the stamp came from a letter posted and franked on board an incoming ship to Cuxhaven. The letter could then have been postmarked at Cuxhaven under U.P.U. paquebot regulations. Best wishes, Giles.
