Entries for Chicagopex are now open. If you have a German Area exhibit, please consider bringing it to the Germany Philatelic Society’s national meeting at Chicagopex, November 19-21, 2021. The Germany Philatelic Society will give out a number of awards for German area material at the show, including the GPS President’s Grand Award, for the best German exhibit by a GPS member, the Chris Hunt GPS Reserve Grand (open to all), the GPS One Frame Award, and the Herman L. Halle Research Award, along with large GPS Gold, Vermeil, Silver, and Bronze medals, as determined by the jury. Enter now and reserve your spot at Chicagopex. See https://www.chicagopex.org/chicagopexcurrent.html for more information. It is best to enter early as Chicagopex usually fills its frames quickly. GPS members do have priority, as the GPS is a Convening Society, but that does not guarantee a spot if the show sells out. There also will be a literature exhibition for those of you who are also philatelic writers. Philatelic Exhibits Contact: Tim Wait, P.O. Box 242 Belvidere, Il 61008. (815) 670-5869 t.wait@comcast.net.
We are also looking for people who would like to present a seminar or talk at the show and folks who would be willing to serve a two hour shift at the GPS table at the show as a GPS ambassador. Please contact Ken at kgilbert78@att.net for more information.
