Cachets should be listed in chronological order based on earliest known usage. Use the postmark date or best guess. This applies to add-on cachets as well.


Pearl Harbor Study Group

Composition: members interested in information about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 and the aftermath.
Organized: Reactivated 1986 (USCS Log August 86, page 97 & September 1986 page 110).
Organizing members: Larry Wendell, Louis Bushnell, Dave Maurer.
Cachet director: B.M.Vesper. - - - Cachet artist: Dave Maurer, Bernhard Vesper.
The purpose of this study group was to compile and exchange information on the Dec 7, 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The first newsletter for the group was issued in February 1987, Larry Wendell, editor; the final two issues in 1998 were edited by Phil Bronner. The PHSG sponsored printed covers related to Pearl Harbor anniversaries. A number of early cachet designs were recycled later. Covers were normally issued with the autograph of the artist, or the organizer of both, a nice touch.

Sponsor identification: covers - Pearl Harbor Study Group USCS with cachet; post cards - PHSG logo on reverse.
