The Official Website of The
South Africa Collectors' Society
was constructed entirely from scratch starting in December 2013,
after six weeks of work, it went live on 27 January 2014. Since
then it has evolved time and again with improved layout and new
content. By the late September 2017 the site has registered 17,400+
hits.
We have achieved a top ranking and whether one googles the name
of the society, Southern Africa Philately or other associated
words we invariably appear as No 1 at the top of the page. Any
search 'by image' delivers the same result as every single image
enjoys an appropriate title. |

As a keen lifelong Philatelist I
constantly research many aspects of South and Central African
Philately and since 1993 I have published my own magazine entitled
The Rhodesian Philatelist.
I have written numerous articles
that have been published in several Journals which include Gibbons
Stamp Monthly, The South African Philatelist, The Springbok and
a number of them have been posted on this website. |
