I speak a lot about the local show, PENPEX, but what is on my mind now is the APS StampShow on August 8-11. The show will be held in Milwaukee which happens to be where I grew up. So I look forward to a great show but also seeing family and friends. If you are at the show, look me up and I can tell you where to get the best frozen custard.
Back to PENPEX, we have 15 committed dealers plus the USPS. The current dealer list is now available. We have two new dealers; Stephen Pattillo and Dave Zabaldano. There will also be a silent auction with over 500 lots. PENPEX show cachets will be for sale along with some past cachets.
