Four-nation Stamp Exhibition, 2017

Four-nation stamp exhibition (2017) was held in the Emquartier, Bangkok, Thailand from 10 to 12 March.  I have exhibited my five frames exhibit named "Burma's commemorative covers with special cachet (1937 - 1948)" under the postal history category.  And this exhibit hit 73 points and won the Large Silver medal award.



This exhibit is the extended version of three frames exhibit displayed in 2015.   It includes study of historical events covers and philatelic covers, postmarks on it, cachet creators and varieties of cachet designs made by individuals.The material in this exhibit includes Last Day Covers, First Day Covers, Commemorative Covers, Newspaper Wrappers, Newspaper cut-outs and registration receipt. Well known philatelists, at that time, made their own private covers for stamps issues, philatelic events and historical events.  The exhibit includes 4 stamps, 109 covers and 5 newspaper wrappers.
