Australian Commonwealth Collectors Club of NSW
Join the Australian Commonwealth Collectors Club of NSW to explore a variety of stamps with expert study groups, engaging auctions, intriguing displays, and a welcoming community!
About Us
Established in 1940, the Australian Commonwealth Collectors Club of NSW is dedicated to the exploration of Australian Philately. Our displays encompass a broad spectrum, featuring everything from Australian Kangaroos (Roos) stamps and King George V stamps to modern issues, with a special emphasis on postal history highlighted in our quarterly Bulletin.
At each meeting, members of the KGV Study Group are actively involved, extending a warm welcome to newcomers, and providing assistance in navigating this significant field of philatelic study.
Auctions, conducted by Wilson Ilbery, are a notable highlight at the conclusion of the January, March, May, July, September, and November meetings.
We extend a gracious invitation to visitors who are keen to explore and engage with our philatelic community.
