Perhaps you have been intrigued by unfamiliar markings on items or by a recent visit to a Mechanised Letter Office, and would like to find out more. The Postal Mechanisation Study Circle ( PMSC ) was founded in 1976 and has a world-wide membership. We study all aspects of the automation and mechanisation of the posts around the world, for example postal markings, equipment, systems and stamps.

Why not join PMSC and take part in its activities.
