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: Thank you so much for your reply. What is the significance of the number 18 stamped on the back of the envelop? This must have been stamped on a premises rather than by a collection/delivery employee. My example is from St. Stephani-Kirche, Bremen and I am surprised the church community used private post rather than the Deutsche Reich service. Thanks for your help.
