Bob (pictured far right) has served as Product Manager Marketing (Philatelic) for South Australia since October 1992. He has been an ex-officio committee member of all exhibitions held in Adelaide since AEROPEX '94. He has often secured items that are no longer readily available locally. His ideas and foresight have made the life of Products Managers at several National Exhibitions very much easier.

Bob has been an invaluable contact within Australia Post, without his support, encouragement and co-operation there could well have been several National and State Exhibitions, as well as State Congresses, left languishing for lack of suitable products for funding. He has promoted South Australia exhibitions, post marks and philatelic products nationally through the Australia Post publication "The Bulletin."

Since the demise of CPS stamps Australia-wide in about 2000, Bob has marketed and distributed this Australia Post product single-handedly, raising funds for Australia Post through National and International mail order sales or direct sale to local collectors at various shows he attends in his own time. He has provided a generation of collectors with a niche market and has kept these collectors in the hobby. Many purchases of these items are to overseas collectors, this helps to promote Australian Philatelic items world wide.

Bob has been involved with the local stamp collection fraternity by always being willing to make visits, in his own time, to local clubs/societies, giving information on forthcoming Australia Post issues. He has regularly attended meetings of The South Australian Philatelic Council as Australia Post representative. He has been involved with local clubs annual "Stamp Collecting Week" where he has promoted stamp collecting to the general public, which has resulted in membership growth for that club.
