SOKOL POSTCARDS
REFERENCES
Most of the information about Sokol in these pages was taken from four sources:
1. The web site of the Czech Sokol Organization -
http://www.sokol-cos.cz/COS/sokol_en.nsf,
which as of August 5, 2018 no longer reponds. Perhaps that is temporary.
2. "The Sokols in Philately - Postal, Commemorative Postmarks and Postcards,"
by Brian C. Day,
a monograph published by the
Czechoslovak Philatelic Society of Great Britain,
14 Middlecroft, Guilden Sutton, Chester, England CH3 7HF, 1996.
3. Brian Day via email. He saw an early version of these pages and offered to
help make make them more comprehensive and informational, and sent me a huge
amount of invaluable material, and reponded freely to my endless stream of
questions.
4. Štefan Šuták via email. He saw these pages in late
July of 2018 and sent some tentative comments, corrections, and additions, and
when I responded enthusiastically, sent much more. He has responded generously
to my many questions, doing excellent research in original sources in the
Czech Republic, and translating scores of labels and cards for me.
