"William, You collect Foochow Kuliang covers! Arc type??"
I collect Fukien Arc type many years ago but the material is so hard to get and I finally gave up!

I do collect Kuliang and other Foochow covers and postcards as Foochow is my hometown.
I find to collect covers and postcards are more interesting than to collect stamps.
However, it needs more time and patience to look for the covers and postcards that you like.
Patience is the mother of success.

Sorry, I don't know what do you mean "Arc type".
Thanks for asking.

"Arc type"就是拱型戳。

The Arc type cancellation on the cover is not extreme rare. I saw 10+ covers in one auction. But they are so hot, the hammer price is 100 times of the estimation. After the auction, we called that dealer who wrote the description/estimate price as "one percent guy"
拱形戳销票的封不是那么罕见，在拍卖会上时常会见到。有一次拍卖会上我见到10多枚封带此种销票戳。老外不懂，估价很低。但是现场和电话委托竞争激烈。我出到1万2美金败下阵来，最后成交价是估价的一百倍 （华邮网内大佬买了）。拍卖会后我们都戏称写拍卖目录的那位邮商为“百分之一先生”。

纽约邮展马上就要到了，如果哪位邮友要去的，可以在这里通报一下，这样到了纽约大家可以互相联系交流。很多邮友都是网上神教许久，就未曾谋面。正好借此盛会见面增进友谊。

我是28~31日在纽约。
老张您什么时候到？住几天？
唐人街的饭店打听得怎么样了？

关先生， 纽约世界邮展还没开始，我在网站上搜索竟发现10年后， 也就是2026年， 世界邮展将在美国波士顿举行的广告。
这次你无法成行， 老张有点失望， 但愿2026年的邮展你跟你的夫人能来波士顿。  到时老张一定请你们吃龙暇。龙虾除了清蒸还有三种吃法：
龙虾沙拉， 薑葱龙虾和蒜茸龙虾， 不知关先生喜欢哪种呢？

多謝張先生誠意相邀，並以龍蝦為餌，其實我與太太最喜龍蝦刺身，其次是蒜茸蒸。
但無論如何，在此先行謝過，希望十年之後可以來吃龍蝦。

或是先生來香港讓我可以作東。

I checked the following Canadian website and discovered some information about the stamp show:

http://canadianstampnews.com/tho ... g-world-stamp-show/

Thousands of exhibit frames at upcoming World Stamp Show
World Stamp Show NY2016 is slated to take place this May 28-June 4 in New York City.

It will be the largest international philatelic exhibition held in the U.S. since Washington, D.C. hosted the 2006 World Philatelic Exhibition, which included 640 exhibits from 60 countries around the world.

At this year’s World Stamp Show NY2016, held May 28-June 4 in New York City, the competitive exhibits will span virtually all subjects with 700 exhibits across 4,125 frames. There will also be about 500 frames of non-competitive exhibits and a court of honour displaying some of philately’s greatest rarities, including the unique 1856 one-cent Magenta of British Guiana.

The exhibition takes place on the third floor of Manhattan’s Javits Convention Center. On May 28 – opening day – the exhibit floor will be open from 10:30 a.m.-6 p.m. For the remainder of the week it will open at 10 a.m. and close at 6 p.m.

EXHIBITS

A complete listing of competitive philatelic and literature exhibits are now posted here on the World Stamp Show website.

The show’s Exhibits Selection Committee received applications for more frames than were initially available, so the initial limit of 3,800 competitive frames was increased to meet some of the demand.

World Stamp Show Commissioner General Stephen Schumann and Judges and Judging Chair Stephen Reinhard said: “These are the finest selections of competitive exhibits to be shown at a World Philatelic Exhibition in many years. The selection process was very difficult, considering we had over 6,500 frames applied for and we could only accommodate 4,125.”

George Pepall, president of The Royal Philatelic Society of Canada, agreed the show’s scale and scope is unmatched.

“The number of dealers will be in the several hundreds, and the number of superb exhibits will … give attendees the opportunity to see virtually anything that anybody specializes in,” said Pepall. “There’s a good chance a person’s specialty will be there as part of a world-class exhibit.”

Out of a total of 700 competitive exhibits, postal history leads the way with 204 exhibits (or nearly 30 per cent of all exhibits). This is followed by 159 traditional exhibits; 82 single-frame exhibits; 61 thematic exhibits; and 52 youth exhibits.


Dr. Sam Chiu, of Toronto, Ont., is one of 23 Canadian exhibitors. His five-frame exhibit is titled ‘Chefoo Local Post, China, 1893-96’.

Also online is a list of 175 literature entries. Organizers said these applications also exceeded initial estimates. The literature entries include three classes: (a) philatelic books and research papers with 103 entries; (a) philatelic magazines and periodicals with 38 entries; and (c) catalogues with 34 entries.

CANADIAN EXHIBITS

There will be 23 exhibits entered by Canadian philatelists at the upcoming World Stamp Show.

师爷， 我们做每件事若要想做好就需要有经验，如果没经验话最好是先看书或请教别人。  参观邮展如果想有好效果话也需要经验。  我从来没有参加过大型的世界邮展， 幸好你通过微信打电话给我，回答了我几个有关参观邮展的问题。 今天·我在网站上看到一位英国女士写的关于她第一次在1980年参观伦敦世界邮展的经验， 我觉得这些经验有意义， 所以把它张贴·在下面， 供大家参考：

World Stamps
London 1980: my first international stamp show

By Janet Klug

Stamps will take you places. It is undeniable. Even if your journey is taken while sitting in your favorite chair and placing stamps from faraway countries into your albums. That counts as “going places.” If you get up out of your armchair and attend a stamp show, that too constitutes “going places.”

In 1980, my stamp hobby took me and my noncollector husband to London to attend our first international stamp show. It required a long-range plan, the hospitality of dear friends, and a comfortable aircraft. (Ah, those were the good old days!) Our friends took us sightseeing and escorted us to Earl’s Court, where the London 1980 International Stamp Exhibition was held.

I remember going through the doors, paying for the admission and then being selected to go through a security line because I had a handbag and a box of cacheted envelopes that would end up with stamps and postmarks for my stamp collecting buddies back home. I was surprised at having to go through security, but the penny dropped later in the day when Queen Elizabeth II arrived to review her Royal Exhibit that was on display. That sure gave me something to crow about! You never know who you might see at a stamp show.

I remember visiting the Royal Mail kiosk where I bought stamps to affix to my thoroughly inspected covers, and then I deposited them into a special letter box so they would get the show postmark. The covers beat me home.

Time was spent visiting stamp dealers whose ads I remembered seeing in Linn’s Stamp News. Did I buy anything? Probably, but I don’t remember what. There were what seemed to be miles of frames containing the most fabulous exhibits. It was overwhelming, and we only had one day to take it all in. There were other things we wanted to see in London.

I learned a lot about international stamp shows during my premier visit to one. The most obvious lesson was that one day was not nearly enough. It takes about that much time to find your bearings within very large and crowded facilities. It is likely that visitors will have to stand in line to see the magnificent stamps in the court of honor and, in London, the Royal Exhibit. The most popular dealers also had long lines, and I remember standing in line to buy current Great Britain stamps at the Royal Mail kiosk.

My first visit to an international stamp show was certainly memorable. I’ve attended many more since 1980, but each time I go to one of these I come away with more ideas to make my visits more fun and more productive. Here are my tips:

1. You need at least three days at the show or longer if you can.

2. Wear comfortable shoes.

3. Plan ahead for what you want to see and do, especially if you hope to attend some meetings and seminars that often get forgotten if you are busy making purchases.

4. Your schedule can eat up all your time, including the time you use to eat. Pack a few granola bars in your backpack just in case.

5. Don’t expect to read every page of every exhibit. Pick the ones that interest you most. If there is extra time, you can always go back to look at more exhibits.

6. Bring a want list (and money) if you plan on finding new items for your collection.

7. Find old friends and make some new ones. Just chatting with someone sitting next to you at a dealer’s booth can be very pleasant.

8. Make good memories, and remember: This is fun!
