    Dear Delcampe members
    I would like to see some comments from members that take a share in some philatelic exhibitions.
    My special exhibit is India postal stationery. My participation was only on national or international exhibitions in Israel. My largest medal was a large silver medal.

    I always enjoy seeing the exhibits at shows but I have never created one myself.
    Maybe the rules intimidate me.

    My wife won the first display competition she entered at a local postcard show. There, the winner is determined by voting from everyone present at the show. I'm sure this changes the type of exhibits that would win compared to philatelic exhibits.

    Dear Alan
    Thanks for sharing yourself and your wife experience.
    About a public voting. I think that it's an excellent idea.
    BTW now you can also exhibit one frame.

    I should add that there were two colors of balltots--one for the dealers who set up there and one for the general public.

    The rules were only so that all exhibitors used the same size boards and format.
    There is very little text in most postcard displays which is one difference with philatelic boards.
