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 presume you are aware of the Memelland local issue of 23 March 1939 - being Lithuanian stamps overprinted "Memelland ist frei" - there is an article about this in a back issue of 'Germania' which I can supply. There was also a similar slogan cancel.
