From Nov. 2– 4, 2012, Mainz – the city of the Man of the Millennium Johannes Gutenberg – is hosting an International Philatelic Literature Exhibition (IPHLA). It continues the reputed name of the well-known IPHLA, which under this label took place for the first time in Frankfurt-on-Main in 1989.

Exactly 150 years before 2012, the first German stamp album and the first philatelic catalogue were published in the city of Leipzig. These two print media of German philately opened an era that made stamp collecting a popular movement.

Gutenberg-Museum

Just like the two preceding literature exhibitions of 1989 in Frankfurt and 2007 in Leipzig, IPHLA 2012 Mainz will be an international meeting.

IPHLA 2012 Mainz is being held in the generous and pleasant location of the remarkable city hall. The Gutenberg-Museum of the city of Mainz has been incorporated in the event as well.

The German Philatelic Federation BDPh e.V. is the host and invites all authors of study groups, small and big publishers, literature dealers and libraries to take part in this philatelic literature exhibition of 2012 as an exhibitor, dealer or sponsor.
