Korea Stamp Society - The Unforgotten War
2025-11-11 10:30 - 17:30 | Royal Philatelic Society London, 15 Abchurch Lane, London, EC4N 7BW, United Kingdom
On 11 November 2025, the Korea Stamp Society will sponsor ‘Korea – The Unforgotten War’, a one-day celebration dedicated to the history and philately of the Korean peninsula from Liberation in 1945 to the Armistice in 1953. It will take place at the Royal Philatelic Society London in the City of London.
This special event coincides with the 75th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War and brings together collectors, historians, and postal scholars from around the world.
The programme will open with a welcome by Tony Bard FRPSL, followed by an address by Martin Uden, former British Ambassador to South Korea and the current President of the British Korean War Veterans’ Association.
The impressive line-up of presentations will commence with Dr Owen Miller of the School of Oriental and African Studies, who will examine the nature of the Korean War itself, while Dr James Goulty will provide an overview of the British Armed Forces’ role between 1950 and 1953. After lunch, Dr James Grayson will talk on the first stamp issues of both North and South Korea after 1945. The day will conclude with Tony Bard FRPSL presenting ‘Aspects of Korean War Postal History,’ linking the human experience of the conflict with the tangible traces left in letters and covers.
Alongside the lectures, visitors will enjoy an extensive range (50 frames, or 800 album sheets) of philatelic displays highlighting major aspects of Korean postal history during this turbulent period. These exhibits, generously contributed by many of the leading specialists in post-1945 Korean philately worldwide, will provide a rare opportunity to view material seldom seen in public.
Attendance is free and is open to all interested collectors and researchers. Registration is required — please contact Tony Bard at koreanwar75@gmail.com for details. The Korea Stamp Society is proud to support this important event, continuing its mission of promoting Korean philately internationally since 1952.’
