The popular North Toronto Stamp Club’s annual exhibition will return to the National Postage Stamp and Coin Show on April 6-7 in Mississauga, Ont.
“We are never quite sure how many entries will come in, but this year, we expect 30 to 40 frames,” says John Wilson, who is co-chairing the exhibition with Les Selby. We have received entries that focus on traditional philately, postal history, social philately, and experimental class.”
Wilson says they welcome single and multiple-frame exhibits.
“We also judge single-page exhibits and offer advice for anyone who wants to submit a half-frame treatment of a theme that will hopefully become a formal exhibit. In the case of single-page entries, each year, we suggest three or four themes and are amazed at how creative our exhibitors are in interpreting them.”
