Postal Stationery Society of Great Britain

The Postal Stationery Society of Great Britain was formed in April 1941, with the aim of encouraging philatelists to collect and study postal stationery, in addition to the accepted hobby of stamp collecting.

All this was reported in the Society's newsletters which were issued 2 or 3 times per annum in the early years, and more frequently later on.

From these newsletters the Society appears to have been run entirely by post, with no official meetings taking place.

Members were advised of the various catalogues that included items of postal stationery in their listings.

Stanley Gibbons had stopped listing postal stationery in its comprehensive catalogues at the beginning in 1900.
