I am thinking about entering an exhibit based on my reprints. Never done this before, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am thinking about entering an exhibit based on my reprints. Never done this before, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your post, Mark. Have you read the last issue of the TSF Newsletter (v8.3) by any chance? If not, you may want to, because we had an excellent article from a first-time exhibitor in there, which was John ( greaden). I feel sure that he could comment on this. The Newsletter v8.3 issue is located here for download: thestampforum.boards.net/thread/11599/current-issue-volume-apr-2024In addition, I know for sure that Alex ( vikingeck) and Jeff ( JeffS) both have experience in exhibiting, and in Jeff's case, judging exhibits, too. They may also be able to comment in response to your post. As for me, I have marked the dates for this show in my calendar, and I will keep them in mind, just in case I can manage a trip to NZ! Boy, I would love to come to visit the country and attend a stamp show, too!

Thanks for the link to the article. Interesting to read someone's experience. I have some interesting aspects of the reprints to exhibit and examples of them, but I am not sure if I can put together enough frames without it being boring. I am not sure if multiple pages, each with a large block of a different denomination, in addition to some "proving" examples, would be considered worthy. The DIVISION 2 FIP Qualifying Classes has a minimum size of any entry of two frames (32 pages). Thats a lot of pages to fill.
Also, is it possible to mount a full sheet of the FFQ 2d plate II Hausburg reprint across multiple pages.
I am a NZ Citizen, but not a resident, so I don't think I can enter the Adult Development class (NZ residents only) which allows one frame or 8 pages.
There is also Non-FIP that can be one frame (I am guessing 16 pages), but the categories are limited, unless topical has a broad definition.
DIVISION 3 Non-FIP Qualifying classes. 3.1 Cinderellas 3.2 Frugal Philately 3.3 First Day Covers 3.4 Modern (any classes 2.4 – 2.9 or 3.1 – 3.3 primarily using material issued in the last 30 years. 3.5 Topical 3.6 One Frame – any of classes 3.1 -3.5

Here is a good example of a Chalon exhibit by Lindsay Chitty. Note that there is quite a bit of text, so it may not be as hard as I thought to fill the pages

The link to the Hackney Cape of Good Hope triangulars, thank you! Joseph Hackmey linkBiography Joseph D. Hackmey, is an Israeli Philatelist and businessman, and art collector, who has won Grand Prix medals at the World Philatelic Exhibitions, Istanbul 1996, Israel 1998, Israel 2008, and was a candidate for the Grand Prix in Washington, 2006. Hackmey signed the Roll of Distinguished Philatelists in 1999. Hackmey is a Fellow of the Royal Philatelic Society, London and a member of the Collectors Club of New York. In 2010 he was elected an associate foreign member of the Académie de philatélie, Paris. He became interested in stamps at the age of five, watching his father studying his Commonwealth collection of the "Three Kings". From that time he spent many hours each week with the "SG Red Book" sorting the stamps that were sent to his father's insurance company. He is one of the few philatelists to have won FIP Grand Prix with different exhibits - his Classic Persia won the Grand Prix d'Honneur at Istanbul '96; his Holy Land Ottoman Period the National Grand Prix at Israel '98; and more recently, his Moldavia & Wallachia won the National Grand Prix in 2008 and his Classic France the International Grand Prix at Israel 2008. Apart from the above, Joseph has received major medals for Ceylon, New Zealand, Chile, Jordan, Barbados, British Palestine and Grenada. In addition he collects USA imperfs on cover, Australian States, and the Postal History of the Turkish Post in the Ottoman Empire. He is a member of the Collectors Club, New York. Joseph Hackmey is a fifth generation Israeli. He achieved a B.Sc. in mathematics and physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1964, followed by an M.Sc. in electronic engineering in 1965 (at age twenty). He earned a post-graduate diploma in Actuarial Science and business management from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1967, and then qualified as a Fellow of the Institute of Actuaries, London. Following a number of appointments with the Israel Phoenix Insurance Company, he was appointed Managing Director in 1987, and was Chairman from 1991 until he sold the company and moved to England. Joseph Hackmey is a member of the Board of Governors of the Weizmann Institute of Science; the Israel Museum; the Tel Aviv Museum of Art; the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, the Tel Aviv University; and is a member of the International Council of the Tate Gallery, London. During 1988-1995 he served as Chairman of the Israeli Chess Association and was for a number of years Honorary Treasurer of the Arthur Rubinstein Music Society. He is passionate about opera as well. Through his understanding and appreciation of the arts, he established the Israeli Phoenix Corporate Collection, considered the most prominent corporate collection of art in Israel. Joseph also possesses a large personal collection of art. In 2000, he received the bi-annual International Humanitarian award from the B'nai B'rith society in Washington D.C. under the patronage of President Clinton, and in May 2009 received an Honorary Doctorate from Tel Aviv University in recognition of his activities and donations to improve social projects (including art, music, chess and literature) in Israel.
