The Society is based in Melbourne, Australia. We have members from around the world dedicated to the research, study, publication and display of all aspects of philately and postal history, both of Australia and its States, and worldwide. The Society strives to provide the best possible environment for the encouragement and promotion of philately. It is forward-looking and dynamic, aiming to be the premier society in Australasia, bringing new members, and all collecting interests together for the good of philately.
