Epsom & Ewell
Philatelic Society
WE hope to start meeting again in September 2021. In the meantime we are having fortnightly meetings via Zoom. Whether you are a member or not and would like to take part just drop us an email. If you have no experience of Zoom, don't worry, it is easier than you think and we'll do all we can to get you up and working. Meanwhile we have plenty for you to see and read under the Virtual Meetings, Focus on GB and Magazine tabs - take a look.
Stamps and symbols
There has been a long-standing dispute between Korea and Japan regarding the ownership of the Dokdo Islands. The Koreans, both North and South, have used postage stamps to underline their claim.
You may not have heard of the Dokdo Islands but one dispute you are sure to be familiar with is that between Britain and Argentina over ownership of the Falkland Islands. As the display show, stamps have been used by both sides to publicise their claim.
