Philatelic International (Filintern) [b] was an international philatelic society of collector- workers. It was founded and based in the Soviet Union in the 1920s to 1940s. [1] [2]
The creation of the Filintern was set up at a conference in Moscow in 22 to 30 June 1924. Its formation was greeted by all branches of the All-Russian Society of Philatelists and at the same time by the Soviet Esperantists. At the conference opening, Feodor Chuchin, the Commissioner for Philately and Scripophily, declared:
Within the Filintern and through it we will not only adhere to all the rules of international philatelic ethics but also watch to make sure others uphold them.
A program for the Filintern's central organ was developed that included:
Filintern facilitates the goals of philatelists, scripophilists [d] and Esperantists. Within Filintern, they could:
Using philately, scripophily and Esperanto, the Soviet authorities also hoped for promoting communist propaganda among the foreign proletariat. [1] Filintern received a further boost from the SAT ( Sennacieca Asocio Tutmonda) Congress of 1926. [2]
The Philatelic International's organ was the journal Esperanto: Radio de Filintern. It was an insert included in the monthly magazine Soviet Philatelist or Soviet Collector. [2] Its Editor was a prominent Russian philatelist L. K. Eichfuss. The first issue of the journal appeared in January 1925. [1]
