“The ADPS Stamp Dealers Society is a UK based society formed in 1966 for the benefit of both full and part-time dealers worldwide.

The Society requires all members to abide by a strict code of ethics. Collectors can therefore have confidence when dealing with ADPS members. This, in turn, can lead to increased business for members.

For a modest annual subscription, members can also use the ADPS logo and other society services such as help in dealing with or avoiding ‘problem’ clients. Members also receive our magazine “The Bulletin” and our Newsletter on alternate months.

The Society is run by a Committee with a Chairman, Secretary, Confidential List Officer, Webmaster and other members.”

These initials in an advertisement or on a letter heading signify membership of the Society, which provides various services for approval dealers.
