OUR NEXT ZOOM MEETING 28 JULY 2026
Join us on Zoom!
There will be two presentations each treating a contrasting facet of our hobby. Roger Niven will open the meeting with his presentation entitled “Transatlantic Mail during the Second Empire”This is a fascinating period of postal history with rates set under multiple bilateral agreements, and with much French mail carried on foreign vessels.
Mick Bister will take over the second half with his presentation entitled “Stamps of the 1960s”. This will examine the period when arguably the foremost stamp designers and engravers worked for La Poste.
