BALKANFILA Newsletter No. 1

Yesterday, we received the first Newsletter from Balkanfila Working Group, along with these lines:

During the Balkanfila Working Group last October in Belgrade, it was unanimously decided that the philatelic communication among the Member Federations had to improve both the frequency and continuity of information exchange. The Newsletter also aims at establishing upgraded cooperation and coordination on common projects, as well as overall regional philatelic matters. Please find attached our 1st Balkanfila Newsletter and share with us your comments, proposals and observations.

The Blue Book of Philately from the Danish Federation

The idea to publish the Filateliens Blå Bog (Blue Book of Philately in English) was introduced in 2010 by the Danish Philatelic Federation (DFF). The book includes prominent Danish philatelists or foreign philatelists deeply involved with Danish philately. The criteria for admission are:

Author of books, publications or important articles on Danish philately.
Danish exhibitor who has at least achieved a Gold medal at a national exhibition.
Recipient of the Denmark Medal and/or the DFF’s gold pin as an honorary member.
Danish juror.
Chairman of DFF and/or Danish representative in international philatelic organisations.
Foreign philatelist who is or has been important to Danish philately.

Earlier this year, the DFF decided to upload the updated version of the Blue Book on its website, freely available to anyone interested.

The Blue Book of Philately is available here:
