The Thai Times is our society journal. It is published three times a year and contains a wealth of material on all aspects of Thai philately.

The August and December 2023 issues were published in August 2024. Further issues are in preparation - the editor is always glad to receive more articles for publication. You can contact the editor by emailing Editor (at) ThailandPhilSoc.org.uk. [You will have to remove the (at) and replace it yourself].

There are a few errata to note in these two recent issues.

August 2023
On page 37 the light green background box-out is missing the final line. It should conclude:
“introduced, with the name of the controlling P&T office followed by a number from 101.”

December 2023
On page 50 the description of Fig. 2 is mistaken. The date of the cancellation is “OC 2 1905”, i.e. October 2nd, 1905.
On page 59 the illustrations of postmarks at Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 are missing. These are reproduced below.
