The Roger Blackburn Collection

The Roger Blackburn Collection is an exceptional study of Preston Postal History that was bequeathed to the society. A project is underway to digitize the many hundreds of items in the collection and to make them freely available here for enjoyment. Please return on a regular basis as this website will be updated frequently until the entire collection is digitized.

EXPONET – virtual philatelic exhibition – is an Internet space designed for storing, exhibiting, searching and studying the electronically displayed philatelic material (exhibits). You find here number of interesting philatelic presentations that can introduce and document various areas of philately together with many competitive exhibits (prepared according to the rules of FIP), often highly rated on regular exhibitions.

The Digital Philatelist maintains a reliable and informative website that publishes a wealth of information, advice, opinion, and news that caters for youth, beginners, intermediate, and advanced collectors. The site contains 100’s of active links.
