Message from the Chairman. 2006 Progress has been made in several areas in the past year. There are now 15 exhibits up on the Commission web site, ranging in size from 1 – 8 frames, with a wide variety of subjects. If you would like to have your exhibit on the Commission web site send scans at 200 DPI to our webmaster Ross Towle at rosstowle@yahoo.com. Or a CD of your exhibit can be sent to Ross Towle, 400 Clayton Street, San Francisco, CA 94117 USA. We have entered into a cooperative agreement with the exhibit website EXPONET. We have downloaded exhibits from their website and they from ours. This gives wider exposure to the stationery exhibits. As Erik mentions in his report, we lack many e-mail addresses, which are sorely needed to make the electronic newsletter a reality. If you do not have have an e-mail address perhaps your national federation or a close friend would be willing to receive e-mails on your behalf. Please send them to us as soon as possible. I hope to see many of you at the Commission meeting during WASHINGTON 2006 and of course there will be a Commission meeting scheduled during Espańa 2006 in Malaga. Stephen D Schumann Chairman |

Message from the Secretary. 2006 I still advertise for information of exhibition results from national, regional and continental exhibitions, literature reviews, information on unusual auction results, and of course report on national activities to promote the collection of postal stationery, to be brought in the next newsletter, or at our web-site. Going through the exhibition results is it a great pleasure to note the very many new exhibitors in our class, and also the very fine results and standard of the exhibits, - it looks as "our" collecting area really has been able to catch a new interest among collectors all over the World. The Bureau has several times asked you to send your e-mail address to a member of the Bureau or to our web-master, however without any great success, - please do it now, when you are reading this !!. It is our hope/intention that this newsletter will be the last one sent out as snail mail, and that we in the future can send it electronic to all delegates. Other of the FIP Commissions already does that. A warm thank you to our honorary member, retired chairman Dr Alan K Huggins for his contributions to the newsletter. Also a warm welcome to two new delegates to the Commission, Mr Tore Berg from Norway and to Mr Götz Schneider, Germany, representing Liechstenstein. Unfortunately can I not be present at the commission meeting during Washington 2006, but will be present at the the Espâna 2006 in Malaga, where I hope to see at lot of you. Erik Hvidberg Hansen Secretary. |
