Fellow CPS member Wil van den Bragt of the Netherlands was interviewed recently by regional newspaper (Eindhovens Dagblad) in the Netherlands about his hobby of cartophilately. The CPS received a nice mention in the article. “We congratulate Wil on his interview and thank him for promoting cartophilately and the CPS!” said CPS president and friend Mark Honig. Checklist Editor David Wolfersberger has finalized the second 2022 update of the MoS Checklist (March 2022 thru May 2022). This new update, along with previous updates, are always available as Microsoft Excel files to download from the “Checklist Updates” section on the MoS Checklist page.
Congratulations are in order to our very own David Wolfersberger who has been named the American Topical Association’s (ATA) Distinguished Topical Philatelist for 2022! David, a life-long collector, has worked diligently over the years helping to promote the hobby. He instrumented the restart of the Wine on Stamps Study Unit in 2006, and more recently helped establish the Gastronomy on Stamps Study Unit in 2017. For cartophilatelists, it was David who helped the late Dr. Alf Jordan lead the restart of the CartoPhilatelic Society (CPS) in 2003. Since then, David has carried out a number of invaluable roles within the Society, helping to guide and reinvigorate the group. David has continued to maintain the research cornerstone of our Society, the Maps on Stamps Checklist, containing information on over 41,000+ map related topicals. David is presently the Editor of the Society’s award-winning journal, The New CartoPhilatelist and the Society vice-president. “The CPS would not be in the position we are today if it were not for David and his support of our Society,” said Mark Honig, CPS President. “From all the members, we thank you for your dedication to the CPS and congratulate you on this outstanding recognition as the ATA Distinguished Topical Philatelist for 2022! Checklist Editor David Wolfersberger has finalized the first 2022 update of the MoS Checklist (December 2021 thru February 2022). These new update, along with previous updates, are always available as Microsoft Excel files to download from the “Checklist Updates” section on the MoS Checklist page.

The CartoPhilatelic Society Resource Centre (RC) is now open. The RC is a new members only password protected service from the CartoPhilatelic Society. This new website site has redesigned the access to the Society’s Journal Archives. The main feature of the RC is the ever-growing list of indispensable reference citations – submitted by you, our members – to aid in cartophilatelic research. An expanded list of internet links as well as a section for RC Projects is being planned. Member Lloyd Field has volunteered to be the Resource Curator and will be your point of contact when you submit new reference citations, links, and content to the RC. The RC site can be accessed using the CPS Resource Centre link under the “Resources” menu option. Once you access the RC site you can bookmark for easy access. Access credentials for the RC can be found on the last page of the October issue of TNCP No. 75 and is a service for current members of the CartoPhilatelic Society. If you have any questions, please use the contact form. Lloyd Field, Resource Curator |
