ISCNY: Greek Stamps of World War II – Occupation, Resistance, and Liberation

Join Allan Smith as he explores the philatelic impact of World War II on Greece. This presentation covers the three major stamp-issuing phases during the conflict: the Greek-Italian War of 1940, the Axis occupation (1941-1944), and the post-liberation period. Discover the unique stamps issued by Italy, Bulgaria, and Germany across occupied regions, as well as resistance movements that used stamps to symbolize their struggle. Allan also highlights historical overprints, rare fantasy issues, and commemorative stamps linked to key events like the Battle of El Alamein and the liberation of Rimini. Perfect for collectors interested in postal history and wartime philately.
