Club Meetings

Club meetings are held mostly every month from 7:00pm. The first half hour is for the exchange of postcard chat and a free coffee. A presentation of interest to history buffs and postcard collectors follows, or, we have a show and tell exchange about a select postcard topic. Visitors are welcome.

Thursday, May 17th, 2018 – 7:00 to 9:00-pm – ‘Advertising Postcards’  They are usually filed as a separate topic in the dealer’s box and they are usually priced higher than a view postcard.  What have you got? What’s the significance of the card? Bring along your examples and their story.
Location: John McKenzie House, 34 Parkview. TTC Line 1 to North York Centre stop. Free street parking out front.

Saturday, June 9th 2:00 to 4:00 pm – Field Trip to the HARRY SUTHERLAND PHILATELIC LIBRARY at the Vincent Graves Greene Philatelic Research Foundation.  This library and its resources are as voluminous as its name! Reference Librarian Kathy Hartley will tell us all about the resources that are available to philatelists and deltiologists and anyone else interested in philately in Canada, British North American and indeed worldwide. Understanding the postal history and philatelic nuances of our postcards allows us to better appreciate and value them.  Come and learn how the Harry Sutherland Philatelic Library and the Greene Foundation can help.
