The aims of the Society are to
draw together all those interested in the stamps of the reign of King George VI,
so that they might pass on their knowledge to each other, record all that they
know for future generations and pursue joint studies of the stamps issued so
as to enlarge the body of philatelic knowledge for the benefit of all.There
is still a great deal of research yet to be carried out.
As the years have progressed, members have expanded into the field of postal
history for the period where again there is still much to be discovered and
recorded.
In pursuit of these aims the society has regular meetings where collections and items are displayed.
There is also an AGM once a year and an auction where society members can sell and bid on lots ranging from as
little as 50p upwards.
The Society issues a quarterly magazine - GEOSIX which has research, news and
other information on the Society. Society members have also published many papers and articles on many aspects
covering the stamp designs, printing and issues of George VI philatelic material. Please see the
publications page.
If you are interested in philately from this period and would like to get involved
and become a member
then please contact the Secretary of the Society. Details on the contacts page.
