The Webster Grove Stamp Club is one of the oldest stamp clubs in the St. Louis, MO metropolitan area. It was founded in 1928. There are about 75 members.

We meet the 1st and 3rd Friday evenings each month at 8:00 PM Central .

In the course of a year, there is something that appeals to everyone. 

Of the various clubs in the St. Louis area, Webster Groves attracts the most advanced collectors.

In the event of snow, hurricane, blizzard, swarm of locusts, etc., Alan will send a Zoom invitation on the Friday afternoon.

Meeting Changes

On 20 January 2023, members in attenance voted to change to one in-person meeting and one Zoom meeting each month. The 1st Friday night of each month will be In-person and the 3rd Friday night will be conducted on Zoom. Paid and honorary members will receive the Zoom link in their regular meeting email. Auctions will only be conducted at the In-person meeting until we find a way to present items for sale easily on Zoom and collect from bidders.
