I.b.m. - International Business Machines

I am a member of the ATA (American Topical Association), and I think that "Topical Time", the bi-monthly journal of the ATA, has the most interesting philatelic articles.

I just received the July-August 2008 issue, and there is a really interesting article about Thomas John Watson, Sr., founder of I.B.M. There are stamps and meters and corner cards for this type of collection.

Intersting reading!

Hi David.....

Any pictures in that issue ?

David, interesting you mentioned that..i purchased a large box of covers with a lot of covers from IBM locations in foreign countries going back to the 1940's..i guess the previous owner was fairly high up in the company...

NR-N:

Yes, a few pictures... including a meter stamp.

I haven't seen this issue yet. I hope it's waiting for me when I get home tomorrow evening.

this guy had it made..he was an IBM world trade manager and a stamp collector !
