QUEBEC
Later this week, on Nov. 12-13, Postalia Quebec is coming to SCFP on 5100 Boul. Des Gradins, in Quebec, Que. The show opens at 10 a.m. both days and will be open until 5 p.m. on Saturday and 4 p.m. on Sunday. Upwards of 30 numismatic and philatelic dealers will be attending the show with a selection of currency, stamps, postcards, and postal history. Several exhibitors will also be exhibiting some of their collections. Admission and parking are free.
In the early 2000s, Postalia—an association consisting of The Philatelic Society of Quebec; The Postal History Society of Quebec; The Society of Quebec Numismatists; The Club of Quebecers Cartophiles; and Saturdays Stamp of the Quebec Federation of Philately—replaced the Collectors Fair and philatelic exhibition held every two years. Postalia is now held each spring and fall.
