Commemorative Issue
Marking the Occasion

A new range of stamps titled "Marking the Occasion" was issued in a portrait format in March 2005. These stamps are also available on-line as part of the new Personalised Stamps™ range. The final two designs in the range - a Christmas tree at the card rate of 45c and a design depicting Australia - are to be released on 6 September 2005.

The "Marking the Occasion" stamps are a wonderful way to celebrate special occasions such as engagements, weddings or birthdays, the birth of a baby, to send greetings to friends and loved ones, or to provide your overseas guests with a memento of their stay in Australia. While some designs in the range are occasion-specific, others are of a more general celebratory nature that can be used for many different purposes.

The Cyprus Philatelic Society was founded on 5th December 1959 by 35 members. Its aim, as stated at the time it achieved the first general assembly, was to find a permanent home, to found a philatelic library, to promote Philately and help its members in educational philately learning and research.

Today the Cyprus Philatelic Society numbers more than 1279 members from Cyprus and abroad and is the only society in Cyprus of its kind. Two hundred fifty six, out of 1279, are junior members. It is the leading society in its field and has an international stature. Its common utility status is based on the society's contribution to the continuous educational learning process. It is a founder-member of the European Philatelic Federation (FEPA) and since 1987 full member of the International Philatelic Federation (F.I.P).

The Cyprus Philatelic Society develops a rich philatelic activity in Cyprus and abroad and focuses mainly on the promotion of philatelic study and research, achieving the cultural development of its members.

Its non-profit character is based on its principles and its contribution to the continuous process of philatelic education, as the only Learned Institution of Philately in Cyprus.
