Book give-away

Murdoch Valley philatelist and founder of Peninsula Publishers and Janssen Stamps, Volker Janssen, has loved stamps since his childhood in Germany. While he does not see himself as a professional stamp dealer, he has gained a lot of experience over the decades and built up contacts with other collectors, dealers, experts, and auction houses worldwide. He is a member of the South African Philatelic Dealers Association (SAPDA) and the Royal Philatelic Society of Cape Town and has been the secretary of his home club, the Fish Hoek Philatelic Society, since 2006. He has published several books on philately and The Southern Cape Peninsula volumes 1 to 6. For more information, visit www.peninsulapublishers.com and www.fhps.info for the stamp club. Mr Janssen donated 20 volumes of The Southern Cape Peninsula volumes 1-6 to the Echo in celebration of its 70th anniversary. To stand a chance to win one of the volumes, email your name, surname, contact details and “Birthday book give-away” in the subject line to jannine.vdwesthuizen@acm.co.za
