The New Haven Philatelic Society was founded on October 15, 1914. The logo of the Society is quite naturally the New Haven Postmaster Provisional Stamp of 1845. The original die was presented by the club to the New Haven Colony Historical Society where it is now on display.

The society is a forum for stamp collectors and meets 7:30 p.m. every Tuesday, except July and August, at our meeting room at 54 Wall
Street, New Haven which is nestled amongst the majestic buildings of Yale University
(click here for directions). There will be informal meetings at 7:30pm
on the second and fourth Tuesdays of July and August.
The weekly meetings consist of good fellowship, a short business meeting and presentation of an exhibit. There is usually a small auction at the end of each meeting. Visitors are welcome to attend. Member competitions in various fields are held from time to time, most notably the annual Hitchins competition, named in honor of Dr. C. Stanley Hitchins, a former president of the Society. The society sponsors SONEX, an annual show with dealers and a stamp exhibition, and has taken over the organization of the 4th Sunday of the Month Collectible Show which features dealers of stamps, postcards, coins and other collectibles - see our most recent press release. | |
