Jack Selway, 50 year stamps

The “First Fifty” years, celebrated at Chicago, February 23, 1955
The Golden Jubilee of Rotary
February, 23 1955

The stamps and post cards are part of a major collection owned by our historian Wolfgang Ziegler of Germany. It is noteworthy to see how many countries of the world, at least the ones we’ve been able to find, were forward in their creating of and promotion of Rotary stamps to celebrate the Golden Anniversary of this great organization in 1955.
