Philatelic life is thriving in Germany.

First, the Bund Deutscher Philatelisten (BDPh) held a very successful Virtual NAPOSTA  exhibition that ran through the month of September. Its main aim was to give exhibitors an opportunity to qualify for IBRA in Essen (now postponed until May 2023) and it was well supported with 64 exhibits entered and a good range of medals awarded. The exhibits can still be viewed on-line at the BDPh website. Go to this address:

Then the German Young Philatelists (DPhJ) held JuPhilA 2020 – including Team Championships, a foundation competition and a regional exhibition – in Mainz from 2-4 October 2020. The Team Championship trophy was won by a team that included participants from Sachsen-Anhalt and the South West. A Press Release was issued afterwards giving full details of the winners – to read it click on the attachment: 2020-10-09_Juphila_E

Coming back to its on-line seminar programme the BDPh has followed up its successful series of on-line seminars earlier this year by adding a second series of Zoom talks between October and December 2020. Once again these are open to all – you only need to register in advance with Eventbrite.

The first two lectures have already taken place but details of the lectures still to come with links to register are at:
