Riverside Stamp Show

Riverside Stamp show happens every second Sunday of the month at the Spellman Museum of stamps (http://www.spellman.org) in Weston, MA, except in May.

Will be my first next month.

They look like they have a lot of fun activites. Wish I lived closer! Have fun when you visit.

Ramanandn, wish I lived in eastern Canada so I could visit the museum and attend the show. My wife wants to go back to visit New England and the Canadian Maritimes, so I will keep it in mind. Thanks for posting.

They even had a stamp bazaar couple of months ago where apparently dealers and collectors sold quite a bit for cheap. I missed that one. Think it happens twice a year; will find out more about that and post details here.

Cheers
Ram

Thanks for posting this Ram. I have family in the Boston area and will be sure to check out the Spellman Museum the next time I'm in the area!

Bumping this up.. just because the show is tomorrow

ramanandn - spellman museum is great all by itself and the shows are good too. Wish I were free tomorrow or I would meet you, its only about an hour for me and I love the museum. we will connect on one or these 2nd sundays and spend the day. - jeff

Jeff... that would be awesome. At least I could tag along with a hugely knowledgeable person. I hardly know anything about Type I, II, the cancellations etc.

I did attend the show day before yesterday; came back very humbled, very aware of how little I knew and how miniscule my collection is . I was one of those annoying people (for the dealers) who don't have much to spend but would like to look around anyway.

If I did not have a particular Scott number I was looking for or in the market to buy a collection, I guess I had no business being there. But it a great experience all the same.
