Stamps

Forever stamped

in pictorial cancellation. As a result, our as-
sociation has been called AS.CO.FLAM.ES on your memory!
since 1987.
We hold discussion meetings, circulate pic-
torial cancellations (of all types or
“themes”), a newsletter is published three
times a year and, at thirty or so pages,
fig 10 fig 11 fig 12
constitutes a permanent link between all our
members (studies - articles - press review -
small ads - open forum).
A new section was recently created for those
interested in “conveyor” stamps (fig.10) and
itinerant stamps (fig.11); information is pu-
blished on this type of cancellation which
has since disappeared.

such as the French Stamp Festival (fig. 12),
as well as in local or regional events; we even
organised our own pictorial cancellation ex-
hibitions under the name FLAMEX in 1971 in
Marseilles, in 1989 in Bordeaux (fig.14) and in
1978 in Château-Thierry (fig.13), which were
expanded in recent years thanks to events
known as MECAPHIL, bringing together va-
rious associations interested in modern pos-

Our influence extends across FRANCE and
even ABROAD.
