Asiago International Awards For Philatelic Art

Last month, on July 17th, the 41st Asiago International Awards were held. Does anyone have any ideas where one could find the award winners?

I only found a few spread across the web but no place, italian or english with the full winners list.

UNPA seems to have won the Best Stamp of 2010 award for 2 event sheets about human trafficking and the fight against child labour.


Portugal won the Tourism award for the Public Elevators series.


Hong Kong won the Ecology award for a souvenir sheet about the Development of Old Areas.


Greece won the Olympic Academy award for their Europa 2010 Children's book set.

I love those Portuguese elevator stamps.

Great designs.

Asiago thats the grated cheese I put on my polenta !!

I even decided to buy the FDCs of those Elevator stamps when they came out.
And despite living in Portugal for almost 20 years, I've only gone up 2 of those elevators. 1 of them, in Braga, only this past June.
In Lisbon (Lisboa), where I live close by, there are 2, and I've only been up 1 hehe

Guess it's not an easy piece of information to find!

I sent an email this afternoon to the Stamp Club that organizes the event. Hopefully they understand English (they're apparently famous in Europe) and reply to me so I can share my findings with everyone!

There's nothing there huckles888. I tried the search. No luck.

The Vice President of the stamp club replied to my email this past week and sent me 3 scans from an italian magazine with information about the awards.

They are currently trying to build a website to publish the awards since many people seem to request the same information.

The tourism award was shared between Portugal and Switzerland:



This 3 stamp set celebrates the Carnaval of Basel.

Later I'll post the 3 PDFs they sent me, once I figure out a place to upload them.
