The PPHSGB’s First Newsletter
appeared in February 1953. The fourth newsletter issued in July 1953 bore the title “The Polar Post”, shortened
to “Polar Post” from the fifth newsletter onwards. The name has stuck and the title remains today, over
250 issues later.
Since
1993 Polar Post has been published in A4 booklet
format by Quacks the Printers in York, England. A major change occurred
at the beginning of 2007 with the introduction of full
electronic publishing using Adobe Indesign CS3 software which has
enabled
all illustrations to be printed in grey tone, greatly
improving the appearance and clarity.
Polar Post is distributed to members only at the beginning of March, June, September and December.
