Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Fort Orange Stamp Club

Assembly Resolution 1523 formally recognizes the 100th anniversary of the Fort Orange Stamp Club, a historic Albany organization founded in 1926 that promotes the study and preservation of U.S. postage stamps. The resolution highlights the club's notable members, including former President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and its long-standing membership in the American Philatelic Society. By pausing legislative proceedings to honor the club, the bill directs the transmission of a copy of the resolution to the club's president as a gesture of appreciation for its century of service to philately and postal history.
