CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA

Click the logo below to join the APS. This link will bring up a .pdf form which can be printed out and mailed in. If you join the APS from this link, I would appreciate it if you would use my name (John L. Kimbrough) as the referring dealer (proposer). My APS Number is 077496.

Be sure to look for the dealer's American Stamp Dealers Association (ASDA) logo. It identifies the dealer as someone who subscribes to the ASDA Code of Conduct (Ethics). I have been a member since 1989. Click the logo below to visit the ASDA Website.

Below are a few more important links to the Philatelic Web. I am very selective about which links to post as I only add links on request to sites that I know practice the highest integrity. If you have a philatelic link that you would like to see posted here, send me an E-mail so that I can check it out. All the links open in new windows or tabs.
