The Memphis Stamp Collectors Society has been a charter, American Philatelic Society (APS) Chapter, since May 1963.  

The membership is drawn from the metropolitan Memphis, TN area with members from Mississippi and Arkansas regularly joining  their Tennessee associates.

Meetings, normally the first Thursday of each month, have been cancelled due to Covid meeting restrictions and our concern for the health of members and associates.  

Please check back for updates.

The challenge is engaging the younger generations and we congratulate a fellow club member for her innovation using stamps as a teaching aid.  

The MSCS club would be happy to assist school teachers in the Greater Mid-South (Memphis, TN, USA) with the cost of using stamps in their school curriculum.  

MSCS offers two, $150.00, Grant Application awards, with the opportunity to re-apply for a second semester.   Please visit the Grant Page for additional information.  Apply now. 

We will keep you advised of club activities via email and this website. Please say yes to accept cookies or join our mailing list.
