Publications

This web page features publications by members of the Southeast Federation of Stamp Clubs, which are listed here as a service to the authors.

Russia in Finland: The Story of Russian Stamps & Postal Stationery Used in Finland, 1899-1918

Jon Iversen, Morton Narstad, and Roger Quinby
This book makes available for the first time a general postal history overview of this era of Finnish philately in the English language.  The work was commissioned by Roger Quinby, an expert on Finnish philately, who now resides in greater Atlanta, and is a valued member of the Southeast's philatelic community.  The book covers such topics as the importance of Russian stamps used in Finland, the administration of postal operations under Russian authority, the Russification of the Finnish post, the removal of Finnish national identity from postal mailings, and many other cultural and historical events that influence the postal history of the era.

We understand that dealer Jay Smith and Associates has a very limited supply of this book.  For pricing and availability, you may contact Jay Smith at

The Postal History of Saint Simons Island, Georgia

Steve L. Swain


The Postal History of Saint Simons Island, Georgia is another venture into a new field offering a look into one aspect of Georgia postal history, a state with very few published resources.
​
Author Steve Swain is a life-long resident of Georgia and the editor of Georgia Post Roads, the journal of the Georgia Postal History Society. He is well versed in his subject and relates the full story with tales dating back to the formation of the United States.

Presenting not only the documented postal history of the best known of the barrier islands, Swain dug deep into the history of the island and its people and brings it alive in his extensive narrative. With more than 140 supporting images, you’ll learn all about the St. Simons Island post offices, postmasters, postal markings, and the people that have supported this popular island community.

The 8.5 x 11-inch, full color, 68-page monograph can be ordered from La Posta Publications, POB 6074 Fredericksburg, VA 22403, or from the La Posta website www.lapostapub.com. Also, you can contact the author at 
jedit@fphsonline.com.

About Steve Swain

​Steve's primary collecting interests and pursuits focus on U.S. postal history, both as an author and an editor/publisher of three postal history journals, Georgia Post Roads, the Florida Postal History Journal, and the North Carolina Postal Historian.


Steve's philatelic articles have appeared in La Posta, The American Philatelist, Linn’s Stamp News, the Postal History Journal, Airpost Journal, First Days, U.S. Stamp News, Mekeel’s & Stamps, The Philatelic Communicator, The Circuit, Stamp Insider, Pennsylvania Postal Historian, North Carolina Postal Historian, , and several other regional and state philatelic publications.

Upon retirement, Steve expanded his philatelic interests and activities as the President of the Georgia Postal History Society,  the Vice President of the Southeast Federation of Stamp Clubs and as a board member of several philatelic organizations. He also enjoys the stamp collecting comradery of several local stamp clubs.

Steve and his wife, Lisa, have been visiting the Georgia barrier islands since 1990. “Enjoying the timeless charm and distinctive history of classic Georgia coastal towns is what we envisioned many years ago and not once have we been disappointed.”
