The first mail-order kiloware I ever bought was from B Schulze, more than 30 years ago! He was based out of Canada and also had a cross-border US address (not very convenient though, you have to take a ferry to get from Victoria to Port Angeles).

I received a solicitation yesterday from Gerald Gonyea, whom I've confirmed with APS has been a member in good standing since 1976. Mr. Gonyea provided the below letter and a 14-page pamphlet listing lots he is offering for sale (I've included an image of the first page of the pamphlet). You'll note on the letter that he is offering our membership a 5% discount on a purchase totaling under $300 and a 10% discount on purchases of $300 or more (your order should identify membership in The Stamp Forum, APS Chapter 1591). Should any of you wish to receive a copy of the pamphlet, please write to Mr. Gonyea directly.   |

I read most of these appointments are confirmed. It will be interesting who the board chooses.
