Alliance Newsletter

In October 1944, Haydn Myer, Secretary-Treasurer of the Confederate Stamp Alliance, began a newsletter to inform the membership of upcoming activities and news related to the Alliance. The newsletter was discontinued after January 1956 when the Confederate Stamp Album was first published and distributed to the membership.

In July 1952 no newsletter was prepared. Haydn Myer later explained that he was in need of a vacation and unable to get the newsletter prepared.

In subsequent years, a newsletter was periodically prepared by the Secretary to supplement the Confederate Philatelist. In early 1958, because of an unexpected change in the editorship, there was no Confederate Philatelist from January through April. In lieu of the CP during that period, the Secretary, Thomas W. Crigler, again prepared newsletters and sent them to the membership.

In October 1978, Secretary Frank J. Crown began the Alliance Bulletin as a supplement to The Confederate Philatelist. The Alliance Bulletin was continued by the subsequent CSA secretaries, Jerry Palazolo, Ron Tate, and Rick Calhoun, until the end of 1993. In 1996 and 1997, the Alliance Bulletin was intermittently printed in The Confederate Philatelist to include membership news.

Alliance Newsletters

The Confederate Stamp Alliance began issuing Alliance Bulletins to help communicate to members at an interval scheduled to be between The Confederate Philatelist printings. The Alliance Newsletter has been authored by General James L. D. Monroe, since its inception.
