2nd APO Philatelic Exhibit

The 2nd APO Philatelic Exhibition was held at the Manila Post Office in 1952.
"The exhibition came as a surprise to everybody who expected to see a bunch of kids putting up an amateurish exhibition," reported the Philippine Journal of Philately. "Instead, they saw college students and professionals who displayed their collections with such seriousness, artistry, and originality as to earn the distinction of presenting one of the finest junior exhibitions here in Manila."
This show was mounted by the Amateur Philatelists Organization (now known as the APO Philatelic Society).

Oh well, this slogan cancel was used in Tacloban from October 1 to 21, 1951 for the 2nd Leyte Provincial Stamp Exhibition held from October 12 to 21.
Anyone knows when the 1st Leyte Provincial Stamp Exhibition was held?

philatelic directory

The Philippine Philatelic Club must have sent out to collectors in 1945 (or 1946?) postal cards like the one shown here for its Philatelic Directory of the Philippines.
Was it planning to propose a Bureau of Philately back then?
