Welcome
to
Norvic Philatelics
We try to be the web's number 1 resource for up-to-date
news about new stamps of Great Britain.
The 2024
stamp programme appears to be an improvement on previous
years'. After the excesses of the Spice Girls mega-issue, the
Weather and Vikings issues bring a return to decent design
concepts and execution. We don't yet know the justification
for some of the issues - Dogs and Spiders in particular!
This website - and eventually the business - was created over
twenty years ago in 1998 with the Lighthouses stamp issue. We
have recreated and updated those pages here.
The story of our first 20 years is on
the blog here.
As it is much quicker for us to write a blog entry
than to update a website, our very latest news will be on
our blog. The last 4 blog entries are summarised in
the column to the right.
E-MAILing us: Many pages have clickable 'email'
links. If you write, please use the SUBJECT line in your
mail to indicate which stamp issue you are writing about.

If you need anything for your collection which isn't shown
here - please ask, we may have it. Our webshop
has stamps, fdcs, booklets, postal stationery, world postal
history, maximum cards, picture postcards, with integrated
shipping and payment facilities.
We also have a site
devoted to the stamps and postal history of the countries of
the Former Soviet Union in the 1990s. This is a
fascinating area of modern postal history and we hope to
find time away from GB new issues to develop this site to
show material from Ukraine, Russia, Azerbaijan, Georgia,
Armenia, Uzbekistan, Lithuania etc, as well as Belarus which
is already shown. You can see
it
here.

NORFOLK
STAMP FAIRS

next Norfolk & Norwich
Philatelic Society Stamp Fair is on 3 August 2024.
The 2024/25 meeting programme & committee details
will be added to the link above after the AGM.
Fair
details will be here.
Fairs previously run by Arun Stamps at
Bowthorpe have been postponed indefinitely due to the Home
Office taking over the hotel for housing asylum seekers.

Is this the most boring colour of such an unflattering
definitive since the King George V Downey head?
UPDATE 17 February 2024 -
The last edition (Version 2.6.10)
of our Machin
Security Checklist which is now available.
It can be downloaded here.
King
Charles III stamps will NOT be added to the list, nor do
we plan to produce a similar catalogue of them, at this
stage.
Much has changed in the last two years, we hope you have
followed on the blog. Our
online shop remains open, but other stock will be offered
through lists available through
the blog.
Please do not send wants lists other than based on the published
sales lists. If you need particular stamps, first day
covers, or anything else, please email with an outline of what
you are looking for.
