History
From its beginning until 1943 it was published monthly. Since 1991 it has been published ten times annually. An article about its history in the December 2014 issue (the 1303rd) contains a chart with the date and whole number of all its issues. Its contents include coverage of worldwide philatelic and postal history topics. A substantial part of the magazine is composed of original work, usually by members who may have given a display on their topic at the society meetings.
