Welcome to the Home Page of the Launceston Philatelic Society.

You are visitor No.13974 to this site.


The Society was founded in 1946 by a group of people who had a common interest, stamp collecting and exhibiting. The Society has continued to foster philately since that date and at present has a very active membership. Some of the members interests are Maritime Exploration, Tasmanian Railway Parcel Stamps, Australian Pre-decimal, Tasmanian Post Office Directional markings and Stamp Duties just to mention a few. There are also many members who are just interested in collecting a specific country or the world in general.
 

The Society holds general meetings twice a month at the Max Fry Hall in Trevallyn commencing at 7:30pm. The formal part of the meeting is usually very short which is followed by a philatelic sale; members display and we concluded with an opportunity to purchase from the latest exchange sheets.
