Edmonton, Alberta Spring Show needs exhibits
Dear philatelic exhibitor,
Below is the text of an e-mail from David Piercey, Chairman of the Edmonton Spring National philatelic exhibition and bourse, March 23-25. It is self-explanatory. David and exhibitors everywhere would be most appreciative if you could plan to exhibit in Edmonton. The prospectus and application form for attached. I'll put in a plug for Vanpex 2007 as well. Vanpex is scheduled for June 8-10 at the Richmond Curling Club in Richmond, BC. Full details are on the BC Philatelic Society web site, at http://www.bcphilatelic.org. We need exhibits too! :-) Bob Ingraham Exhibits Chair, Vanpex 2007 http://www.bcphilatelic.org ------------------------------------ David's e-mail: Have you determined whether you may be exhibiting this year at our Edmonton Spring National, March 23-25, 2007? Remember this is an annual National level exhibition and show, and is one of the longest running annual RPSC-accredited shows in Canada. I would like to invite and encourage you to consider entering your exhibits this year with us once again. There is still time to make application, and the prospectus and entry form are conveniently attached to this e-mail. In addition, they may be downloaded at www.edmontonstampclub.com, where you will also find additional information on our show this year. The deadline for entries is March 1, and all entries would be gratefully accepted. We are, of course, facing the same “crunch” all stamp shows face in attracting and retaining strong exhibits, maintaining a varied dealer bourse, and attracting the collecting public to our shows. The future of stamp shows seems to rest in all our hands, and there is no immediate panacea to remedy our apparent malaise. Your support in this regard is consequently quite important in ensuring the continuing health of our hobby and the exhibiting fraternity. So please give this request your serious consideration. This year our judging panel consists of Sam Chiu (Toronto), Brian Atkins (BC), Arlene Sullivan (BC), David Cooper (NS) and Robert Lane (AB). You will find our club, and the venue, welcoming and rewarding. If you also choose to attend, you may also find some new material for your exhibits or collections. (I know I usually do.) Thank you. David Piercey Exhibits Chairman RPSC Judging Coordinator and Director David's e-mail is Information about the show is at http://www.edmontonstampclub.com/about_us_spring.html  |

My apologies for causing such utter confusion! I never knew that
collectors could so easily confused! Of course, some of my club members get lost on the way to the washroom.... :-) I do know that attachments are verboten, which is why there were no attachments. I just forgot to remove the comment about them! If anyone would like me to e-mail the attachments (prospectus and applications, for either or both the Edmonton shop and Vanpex, please let me know.

... There are many here who 'forget' or never 'knew' the charter and general USENET guides about attachments. How many there are here, Sir? I'm just curious because I see no one who posted an attachment during the last 2-3 months. Do you? -- Victor Manta |

Pedantic means that you say 100 and I say, no, no, no, it's 99. But if you say "many" and the reality is zero, then the situation is totally different. I don't know which term describes it at best, the choice being quite large, that's why I prefer to save on bandwidth. -- Victor Manta |
