Mini-Presentations are also available on the MPHS website.
Each of the following longer presentations cover a particular topic among the many possible subjects of military postal history. Most of these presentations were created by members of the Military Postal History Society, and have been given at various stamp shows, symposia, and exhibitions. The Society solicits additional presentations from its members. See the Submittal Guidelines for information on how to submit your articles and material for posting on this website.
These presentations were for the most part created with PowerPoint (tm), but have been converted into files that are readable online and do not depend on the PowerPoint program. In particular, we have provided PDF files of each presentation, as well as a set of web pages with images of the presentation slides.
Some of the recently-posted presentations are available formatted for e-readers. We have created files in both Kindle (tm) and EPUB formats.
