LINKS TO PISC MEMBERS' SITES:

Our members Roland Klinger, Martin Treadwell, Sheryll Oswald, Hubert Goron, Jacques Merot, Stanley Jersey and John Yeomans (not to mention "Namba 2", "Mele" and "Aore") have created a virtual New Hebrides stamp album which is going from strength to strength. Not just stamps but postal history too, in great depth; the site was awarded a Gold medal with special prize at Midaphil 2000 and has been named as one of the "top 5%" sites (with felicitations) in the 2001 FIP Philatelic Website Evaluation.

For information about fakes and forgeries, including forged overprints on Pacific islands stamps, and selections from her New Hebrides collection, go to Sheryll Oswald's pages.

Brian Cannon has a most attractive Tuvalu site with lots of information, both philatelic and non-philatelic, including the address of the Philatelic Bureau.

Eric Baxendale has relaunched his Micronesia website. This is a mine of information on the postal history and postmarks of the Caroline, Mariana and Marshall islands from 1944 and is highly recommended. An archive of back issues of the U.S. Pacific Islands Bulletin, edited and published by Eric, is available here, hosted by our member Joel Fassler.

Joel Fassler has many collecting interests, among them the US Pacific Islands.

Peter Lineham has produced a Norfolk Island website, inspired by his visit to the island.

Fabio Vaccarezza is a philatelic journalist; he has an extremely interesting website with a lot of Pacific-area material.
