March 17,2021 Meeting Agenda - rweigand - 10-03-2021

We meet again at Ellena's Cafe in Napanee for a review of the 1930 decade of stamp issues. We will look at: the 1929 Kansas and Nebraska Overprints were created to stop theft of stamps. Back then stamps were legal tender, bandits stole $200,000 in stamps valued at $7million today. These stamps were taken over state lines and sold! 2) The 1932 Washington Bicentennials, a set that I personally enjoy very much. Beautiful engravings all. 3) The 1933 Century of Progress Chicago's World Fair, and all its new inventions. A Zeppelin also flew / floated over the fair grounds ! 4) The 1934 National Parks and Farley's Follies. 5) The 1939 Worlds Fair, a major attraction was the first tv's was introduced by RCA (Radio Company of America)! 6) BEP Engraver Clair Aubrey Huston. 
We will also be sorting the Washington Franklin Issues from our binders we reviewed in our last meeting.
Trading Time is next.
We have the room all afternoon, so after this is over we can continue to stay and chat! 
Your Philatelic Friend, Richard
