As I See It

Our lead story...
We hope to see you at NAPEX 
in McLean, Virginia, on June 2-4

We are back for the second year at NAPEX. However, our booth this year is number 57, which is located to the right of the NAPEX information booth as you enter the show. The show is at the Mclean Hilton at Tysons Corner, VA. Show hours are Friday, June 2nd, 10 AM to 5 PM, Saturday, June 3rd, 10 AM to 6 PM and Sunday, June 4th, 10 AM to 4 PM.

NAPEX takes on special significance this year since it is hosting the 75th anniversary of the Bureau Issues Association (BIA). It is also hosting the United Postal Stationery Society. Based on the plans laid out in the BIA's press release for the show you certainly won't want to miss the show this year.

Please stop by and say hello. We will have our entire stock of essays and proofs, fancy cancels, postal history and a large selection of literature. Please call by Monday, May 29th if you want us to bring a special title along: (847) 215-1231.

Since the last week of April we have been putting new material up on our website each week. Currently we are adding essay and proof material. Once this task is completed sometime in July we will start adding postal history each week. By the time this issue of the newsletter hits your mail box all of the essay and proof material already up on our site, whether from stock or a newsletter, will have been merged together and listed by issue. The material within each issue will be in catalog sequence. This should make it easier to find what you are looking for.

If you are not online we will be happy to provide you with color copies of all material from your area of interest. By year's end we will have our entire stock of essays and proofs, fancy cancels and postal history on our website. In addition, we will have a shopping cart program and secure credit card ordering in place.
