Greetings to all and Happy Autumn.  The next Stamp Club Meeting  will be Saturday, Oct 4, 2014 9:30 AM -1PM Midtown Plaza Community Room H 320 E 25th St Ground Floor, as always.

I know many of you will be unable to attend due to the Jewish Holiday of Yom Kippur. However, changing the schedule is not possible this month. I will be there and anyone not observing the holiday is welcome to join me.
Bring your, stamps, covers, to sell/ trade and of course your good cheer.  If anyone has a presentation on a stamp related subject that they would like to present, please let me know  so we can plan to incorporate it into a future meeting. Please call your fellow members, who do not have email, to remind them. 

Once again, I will have more items from the Marty Whitman collection for sale and auction. There will be a dedicated club sale box with these items in it for the for as long as they last. All proceeds go to support and sustain the club. 

We will be having an auction so pick out those choice items for your fellow members to bid on. 

Last month we had a good turnout of 15 plus members.  Thanks to all who helped set the tables and help with break down as well.

Many thanks to Herbie Stillman as always for providing cakes when he is able.

I will be collecting $25 dues for the new year so be ready to renew your membership. If not in October then when I see you in November.

Cheers.

ASDA Stamp Show in New York October 23-26 2014

Here is the next major stamp show in New York City:

Public transportation to this includes the N/R trains, F/D, 1/2/3 (stopping on 7th Avenue), A/C/E (stopping on 8th Avenue & 59th Street).
The Hilton is a few blocks south of Central Park (which starts at 59th St.) and the Avenue of the Americas is also known as 6th Avenue, so trains to 7th and 8th will bring you a short walk away.
Most weekend in the city, weather permitting, there are also stamp stands in the Hell's Kitchen Flea Market - which is open Sat/Sun - located on 39th St. between 9th & 10th avenues - nearest trains are 1/2/3, A/C/E, N/R S 7 - all stop at the Port Authority, which has an exit on 9th Avenue and 40th so very convenient.
