Cape Town 2022 International Stamp Exhibition Update

 





📢📢📢Fédération Internationale de Philatélie

(F.I.P.) have granted the organising committee of Cape Town 2022 permission to host a Championship Class. 

- By Commissioner General (Cape Town 2022).


Please note that there a 2 types of Championship Class:


- World Championship Class (WSC), precondition: 1 x Large Gold or 1 Grand

Prix

- FIP Championship Class, precondition: 3 x Large Gold in 3 different years


As Cape Town 2022 is a specialized FIP-exhibition, we will be adding a WSC.

Class 12. World Stamp Championship Class For Traditional Philately, Postal

History, Postal Stationery, Aerophilately and Thematic Philately exhibits

that have been awarded:

a. F.I.P. Large Gold medals at the exhibitions with patronage or auspices

of FIP; b. FIP Grand Prix (Grand Prix National, Grand Prix International,

Grand Prix d’Honneur, or Grand Prix d’Exposition).


Neither the 10-year time frame restriction stated in F.I.P. GREX Article

9.1 nor F.I.P. GREX Article 9.5 applies.


(GREX Article 9.1: Participation in the FIP Championship Class is

restricted to exhibits which have received 3 Large Gold medals in World

Exhibitions in three separate years during a 10-year span, starting January

1st of the year after receipt of the 3rd Large Gold Medal.

GREX Article 9.5: On receiving the Grand Prix d’Honneur in the FIP

Championship Class, or having completed eligibility under Article 9.3, an

exhibit may only be shown out of competition by the same owner.)


So it will be a "World Stamp Championship" (WSC) Class. This will be added

to  IREX.

Philately Its glorious Past and uncertain future 

By Anil Dhir


(Festschrift volume in Memory of Late Bijayshree Routray_)







A book on Philately was released at Bhubaneswar  on the 2nd June, the first Death Anniversary of  the Founder President of Eastern India Philatelists’ Association,  Bijayshree Routray.

The Book titled:  “Philately: It’s Glorious Past and Uncertain Future” is a Festschrift Volume in his honour. The book, written by Anil Dhir,  has a foreword  by Jeevan Jyoti.  It has many interesting articles on the past and present of Philately in a world perspective, with special reference to the Indian context. The book is divided into two parts, the first comprises of scholarly and informative articles, and the second part is memorials and testimonials from philatelists over the country who have written wonderful and emotive pieces.



The book was released by the governor of Odisha, Prof. Ganeshi Lal in the presence of many other eminences of the state. Speaking on the occasion, Anil Dhir, the author of the book said that Bijayshree Routray was not only a politician with a long term stint, but also an excellent scholar and academic person. His role in firming and taking EIPA to great heights will be ever remembered. Philatelists from all over the state attended the memorial.

The book is priced at Rs 400 and is available on Amazon and Flipkart. However a few copies will be given to philatelists for Rs 200.
