CLUB MEETINGS
February 1, 7pm
Stamps of the Allied Military Government (AMG)
February's meeting program will be a presentation by Nik O. on the stamps of the Allied Military Government (AMG) in Europe and beyond. In the immediate post-WWII period during allied occupation, the allies ran the postal systems of many occupied countries: Italy, Germany, Austria, Korea, and the Ryukyus. While the German AMG stamps may be the most recognizable, many other stamps were issued. The aim of the presentation is to familiarize you with the stamps, varieties, and key people involved in promoting AMG Philately. Whether your interests are stamps, postal stationery, postal history, errors, or revenues, there will be something for everyone.
