Well, I've mentioned it several times here, and finally done it. Sent in my application to BNAPS, and received my membership confirmation within half an hour. Let the research begin!

I think you'll be pleased. I have been. It was BeeSee who encouraged me to join and I haven't regretted it.

Hi Chris. From their own website,
'The British North America Philatelic Society Ltd. - BNAPS - is an international organization (founded 1943) devoted to the collecting and study of the stamps, markings, and postal history of Canada and the pre-confederation colonies of British North America (British Columbia, Canada, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island).'
A wealth of information and connections for all things BNA.

BNAPS = British North America Philatelic Society. For those who like Canadian stamps, note that the BNAPS website is an excellent resource for online material. Online books, articles and exhibitsBNA Topics, the BNAPS journal - all copies up to 2008 are available online - there are also links to some other Canadian philatelic journals available online, including those of the RPSC various BNAPS study group newsletters - my favourite is the Corgi Times for modern QEII issues (see the listing under "Elizabethan") Ryan
