FSCC auction November 2018


Pictured here is the back page of the September-October 2018 edition of Courier, official publication of PHLPost in Filipino. Copies were given out earlier this afternoon during the auction and fellowship of the Filipinas Stamp Collectors' Club held at Manila.

More than 20 bidders participated, vying for some 540 lots of various collectibles, including several Commonwealth and Japanese occupation mint sheets, as well as a stockbook containing Republic issues handstamped with either OB or GO. There were a few new faces in the crowd.


The Re-Collection Stamp Exhibit still is ongoing and I had a better look this time at each frame mounted by 10 collectors: Jimmy Ang, Josie Cura, Gerson Danseco, Marco Malto, Rey Ong, Hans Becker, Jorge Cuyugan, Dojie Latura, Ngo Tiong Tak and Benjamin Respicio. A brief philatelic bio introduced each collector and quoted what they had to say individually about stamp collecting.

On Friday afternoon the 23rd is the launching of the postal museum at its new location...with a lounge for stamp collectors!
