The prospectus and entry forms are now available for APS AmeriStamp Expo 2014 (www.stamps.org/AmeriStamp-Expo). The annual winter show of the American Philatelic Society (www.stamps.org) will take place at the Statehouse Convention Center in Little Rock, Arkansas, February 14–16, 2014.

Chaired by Robert Ziegler (IN), the exhibit jury will include Mark Banchik, Team Leader (NY), James Graue, Team Leader (WA), Kathryn Johnson (IL), William Schultz (PA), and Charles Wooster (OH).

The deadline for the receipt of completed entry forms and fees is November 30, 2013. However, the AmeriStamp Expo exhibition frequently is oversubscribed, so prompt submission of entries is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.

The AmeriStamp Expo exhibition will consist of approximately 300 frames of single-frame and non-traditional exhibits. The show does not accept postal class adult multi-frame exhibits, i.e., traditional, postal history, etc. Single-frame World Series of Philately grand award winners of exhibits at shows with six or more single-frame exhibits automatically qualify for acceptance, but must apply to exhibit. Frames will be available for the most popular championship; however, exhibiting applications must be submitted indicating this category. Exhibit categories are: Single Frame, Cinderella, Display, Illustrated, Postcard, Single Frame Championship and Youth. The winner of the single-frame grand will qualify to participate in the championship competition at APS AmeriStamp Expo 2015 in Riverside, California.
