The Gulf Coast Stamp Club will meet in the St. Martin Library meeting room on August 3. A Board meeting is scheduled for 1 pm followed by the General Club meeting at 2 pm. Click here for a map. Dr. John Barrett will lecture on the 1856 Austrian newspaper stamp Red Mercury. The Red Mercury is the rarest of Austrian newspaper stamps. We did meet for a Board meeting but had no General Club meeting because of the storm.
