StampShow - APS National Summer Convention

The exhibit has pages for each of the 150+ stamps and labels issued from 1961 till 1964 and a "conclusion" double wide page with stamps issued in the 21st century.

There are 106 members from 21 countries.

A text file, MS Word file, and many other formats will work. If you have an exhibit that has interesting malaria items in it, please send scans of the exhibit pages and I can add them to the site.
