Membership

Here are some of the benefits of Membership:

 

The Bulletin

The Bulletin is published six times per year.  This award-winning journal is full of articles written by members, has a Question & Answer feature and keeps our Members up to date with developments in Australian Philately.

Meetings

London meetings are held at the premises of the Royal Philatelic Society in the City of London, on the second Wednesday of most months with a varied programme including many guest speakers.  regular meetings are also held around our regional sections - South West in Ringwood, South East in Epsom Surrey and Wessex in Exeter.

Publications

We publish specialised handbooks written by members with many years experience in their chosen field.  We also stock some other literature together with Society Ties and Scarves.  All items are for sale to Members at advantageous prices.

 

 

 

Auctions

Two to three times a year auctions are held with material covering all periods and collecting interests and catering for all levesl of collectors.

The Packet

The Packet Superintendent regularly circulates books of stamps and postal history for all periods of Australian Philately at a range of prices to suit all pockets.

The Library

An extensive library of both traditional publications and specialist periodicals covering most areas for most periods are available for members to borrow.

Facebook Page

BSAP has a Facebook Page where Members from across the World come together to share new items, information and ask questions.  The Group is private and there are three simple questions to answer to become a member.  Most importantly Members must agree to the Group's rules.

 

Finally, the Society holds an Annual Convention in various locations around the country (the 2022 Convention is due to be held in Salisbury) where Members can see leading collections, exchange information and socialise.  Competitions are also held the Annual Convention covering Traditional, Postal History, Postal Stationery and Open Classes.
