The Lord Roberts Memorial Fund Stamps
Posted: Tue Dec 31, 2013 10:52 am
I plan to undertake research in the stamps (and special albums) produced in 1915-1917 to raise money for the Lord Roberts Memorial Fund .
The idea of the fund was to help ex solders and wounded solders from the great war conflict.
There were special albums produced and 2 series of stamps.
My plan is to research the background and produce lists of both the series of stamps,to write a article on this for the Journal and to generaly raise awareness of this fund in the centenery year of the start of the Great War.
If any members have any information relating to these stamps, i would be delighted to hear from them.
