Welcome to the Scandinavia Philatelic Society
The Society was founded in the United Kingdom in 1952 as the Scandinavian Collectors Club, to promote the collection of Stamps, Postcards and Postal History of greater Scandinavia. That is Denmark, Faroe Islands, Finland, Greenland, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Åland Islands and also the former Danish Colony of Danish West Indies and the Norwegian Territory of Spitsbergen.
We meet regularly in the United Kingdom and hold an AGM weekend, usually in the spring just before Easter. These are informal events, visitors are welcome and dates are published here on the website. Scandinavia Philatelic Society publishes an award winning quarterly magazine journal, “Scandinavian Contact”, with news, research and other articles for its members. New members are always welcome and initial enquiries should be made to Susan Oliver at: secretary@scandps.org.uk
