Arlington

Mar 6

The next Arlington meeting for 2024 will be held on March 6.

The program will be presented by Howard Petschel. Howard is a retired postal inspector and an expert on US counterfeits. He has written four hardbound books on the subject, two of them published and sold by APS.

Skip Ely will accept items for the May auction to be held in Arlington. There is a limit of ten items per member. The minimum bid should be at least $1. Large, heavy, or bulky items (albums, notebooks, boxes of miscellaneous material, etc.) should be retained by the holder until the auction, but submit a copy of the auction sheet in April, or send Skip an email with the requisite information (item description, minimum bid, and the catalog value, if determined).

APS Books will be available at this meeting.
