Absolutely a wonderful newsletter, Roy.
Chris Green, of Chris Green Stamps, Ottawa, Ontario; attended the show and had a booth. Since it is only Chris and I that run the company, I ran the store on Saturday and he ran the booth at the Kingston Stamp Club Show.
He reported that he was well received and had a successful day. We certainly look forward to driving down to Kingston and visiting the stamp club, next year.

Absolutely high grade newsletter and the person or persons responsible for its production should be recognized. Kudos!!!
Roy,
Nice Newsletter!
I book marked the site. There is a lot of reading and information there. I always enjoy seeing what other clubs are up to and what works for them.
I agree with NBStamper, those responsible should be recognized. Have you ever entered it in an exhibition that has a literature competition?
Vince
I agree that this is a very nice newsletter. Great articles and well done up. Well worth reading.

I didn't realize you were in Kingston. There is a robust model car club there, and they have an annual show. My club donates door prizes to them. I know a bunch of guys there! I keep getting invited up to the show (they come to my show in NJ) so one of these days!

Thank you Roy, interesting read, WW1 always seemed to have been the human fodder war.
The article on removing self adhesive stamps caught my attention. The writer mentions Bethane as a removal agent, although it is also referred to as Betane in the article. Neither of which show up as available on "Michaels" website.
Is this the same solution as called Bestine in previous Stamporama articles? Not that it seems to be available in Canada any more than Non aerosol pure orange or citrus air freshener.
Our local Home Depot seems not to stock the Zep product either.
Guess it is internet purchase from the States, then people wonder why nobody shops local.
Grumpy old man moment over.

Home Depot will not ship Pure Citrus, perhaps unsurprisingly.
Cheers,

Amazon carries the Pure Citrus as well.
