ESPER at World Stamp Show - NY2016
ESPER, was a big hit at the WSS-NY2016 held in New York City at the Jacob Javits Convention Center from May 28-June 4, 2016. We had members attending from CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, HI, IL, MD, MI, NE, NC, NJ, NY, OH, PA, SC, TN, VA, WV, WA , Canada, and New Zealand. We had a general meeting, a presentation by stamp artist Jerry Pinkney, the launch of our new website, a silent auction, and the unveiling of our new banner. Our ESPER exhibit frame won a society ribbon. We signed up 21 new members!
