Philatelic Exhibition & Stamp Show Labels & Poster Stamps

No date? No price? No venue? No sponsor?

That is one bare-a* ticket.

Cheers,

An exhibition label? "No date? No price? No venue? No sponsor?" A curious exhibition label! If you're a guest... Why to print a price?

And, the translation:

"Guest
International Philatelic Exhibition
Centennial

La Habana"

To me. it's clear: a ticket not a label.

It's a pity that there's no one who knows about Cuban philately around. That, would settle the question.

But, you all are free to believe what you wish. This, ends the argument from my side!

It's yours, and you believe it's a label? It's a label!

Logically, if it is gummed and intended to be put on an envelope or package, it is a label.

I collect 'tiny covers', here is a tiny Philatelic Exhibition & Stamp Show cover from my collection.

Very attractive stamp and label.

This one was posted on one of the early pages, but in the background, so not easily seen. KenMore Stamp Company seems to have printed a wide variety of Cinderellas using this pair. (I saw one or two that were not quite the same.) For the World Wide Philatelic Convention, The Centenary of Postage Stamps 1840-1940 in Detroit.

Here are three "Bund Deutscher Philatelisten"/(West) German Philatelic Society labels for the 1956 MARPURGA stamp show and exhibition held in Marburg, Germany.

The 1932 Marburg Castle charity stamp, on which the label design is based, is shown for comparison.

Hi all, two poster stamps from the Pacific 1997 World Philatelic Exposition:

Nice to see a philatelist (Steven Rod?) on a stamp



Always pleased to add an AIGA (American Institute of Graphic Arts item to my collection)

3rd International Philatelic Convention 1936.

St. Louis APS Convention 1956.

1954 ASDA National Postage Stamp Show.

Here is a pic of 4 stamps similar to the one posted by stampfan9, with the top selvage showing it was produced by Sennett Security Products, at the "Pacific 1997" World Philatelic Expo.
I believe these were done to demonstrate their ability to add a digital photograph to a background and then print the stamp.



Stampfan9's is only the 3rd one of these (mine included) I have seen in many years. I would think because of size of the show, that many collectors would have wanted to be pictured on a stamp, and there would have been more of these out there.

Also, just curious if anybody would happen to know who is pictured on the stamp.

Mike2006, Thank you kindly for the information.

Could be Richard Sennett, who founded the company, but I have no photos from that era to compare. Most likely just a random collector.

Hi all,


Edited for better scan

Nice Stamp, Stampfan.
