The Clifton Fall 2009 Stamp, Postcard, and Cover Show will be held on Saturday, October 3, 2009 from 10:00AM to 5:00PM, and on Sunday, October 4, 2009 from 10:00AM to 4:00PM at the Clifton Community Recreation Center, 1232 Main Avenue @ Washington Avenue, Clifton, NJ. Admission & Parking are free.
Combining the world of stamp, cover, and postcard collecting, the show
provides collectors and non-collectors alike with an excellent opportunity to view
and appreciate the challenge and variety that these hobbies offer as either individual
or family pastimes. All our participating dealers possess a broad and diverse level
of knowledge which they are happy to share with others. In the best tradition of a
well-rounded show, collectors will be able to leisurely examine stamps, covers,
postcards, supplies and collateral materials from all areas.
At our Fall 2009 Show, we will have separate door prizes for our Saturday and Sunday attendees. Both days’ winners will be notified by mail or telephone. Sample periodicals and other information will be available at no charge. The US Postal Service will be available with a variety of new and recently issued stamps and
Stationery. A special show postmark will also be available.
Established in 1985 by the Clifton Stamp Society, it is one of the
only regularly scheduled show of its kind covering Passaic, Bergen, Essex, Union, and Morris Counties. It has, since its inception, become a gathering place to exchange knowledge with others, and to renew old and make some new friendships.
Stamp and cover collecting were born almost simultaneously with the issuance of the world’s first adhesive postage stamp by Great Britain in 1840. Postcard collecting can trace its roots back to the early part of the 20th Century. Both hobbies are interesting, entertaining, highly educational, and they can be tailored to just about any budget. Perhaps best of all, they can be an escape from the present, if for only a short time.
