Southern Methodist University Philatelic Center records, 1971-1976.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/729240576

Formed in 1972, the Southern Methodist University Philatelic Center was an SMU organization dedicated to supporting stamp collecting in the local area. The Center hosted annual symposia in stamp collecting, sponsored workshops at SMU and served as a vehicle for tax-deductible donations of money or philatelic materials for the furtherance of philately in the region. Although the organization's beginnings looked hopeful, interest in the Center quickly waned and it disbanded itself in 1976 due to lack of support. The organization's records include correspondence, executive committee meeting minutes, memos, newspaper and magazine articles, and financial reports.
