    From Sir F.A. Rien@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jun 24 08:05:04 2016
    Did anyone visit the exhibition area and seee John Davies' Gold
    Medal collection of The Penny Postage Jubilee material?

    He's asked how the US attendees might have reacted to it being
    rather highly specialzed GB 'stuff'.

    Thanks!

    This exhibit was awarded Best in Class and/or highest points in the
    category:

    "Open Philately: John Davies (U.K.) for "A Jubilee Reminiscence. The 1890
    Penny Postage Jubilee" (93 points)".

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Stamp_Show-NY_2016

    I saw it en passant but I can tell nothing about it because I saw so many exhibits and because it is too specialized for my limited philatelic
    knowledge.

    Anyway, Mr. John Davies deserves our sincere congratulations!
