Default Americover 2007 Names Exhibition Jury

ILLYEFALVI TO HEAD AMERICOVER 2007 EXHIBITION JURY

Kalman V. Illyefalvi of Maryland will be chief judge for Americover
2007, the annual show and convention of the American First Day Cover
Society.

He will be joined on the exhibition jury by Ronald E. Lesher of
Maryland; Douglas Clark of Massachusetts; William Schultz of
Pennsylvania; and Stephen Suffet of New York.

The three-day World Series of Philately show will be held August 17-19
at the Stamford Marriott Hotel & Spa, and will feature a large
mostly-FDC bourse, cachetmakers bourse, top exhibits, a banquet,
meetings, seminars, youth booth, pre-show area tour and post-show
dinner event.

The U.S. Postal Service's new Celebrate! stamp will be issued during
the show, too.

Charles J. "Chuck" O'Brien III, a veteran WSP and first day cover
exhibitor, won the Grand Award for best exhibit at Americover 2006 for
his "Joint Issues with the United States 1959-1994." His "Georgia
Bicentennial 1733-1933" picked up the Reserve Grand, as well as the
APS Award of Excellence for 1900-1940 Material and the United States
Stamp Society Statue of Freedom Award.

Illyefalvi collects and exhibits FDCs as well as postal stationery and
postal history of Hungary and South Africa. He was instrumental in
establishing the original guidelines for judging first day covers and
is an international judge.

Lesher is a specialist in United States revenue stamps and also

judge, he serves as the U.S. representative to the International
Federation of Philately's commission on revenues and is vice president
of the commission's bureau. He is a past president of the American
Revenue Association.

Clark collects and exhibits postal history and postal stationery, as
well as mobile post office mail. He is a past president of the Mobile
Post Office Society and current president of the Postal History
Society. He is also an international judge, and exhibits United States
postal stationery FDCs.

Schultz specializes in Pennsylvania state postal history, among other
collecting areas, and is past president of the Pennsylvania Postal
History Society. He has written and edited articles on postal history
and was author of the first catalog on Rattlesnake Island Post, which
became a runaway best seller.

Suffet collects and exhibits thematics, U.S. postal history,
stationery and first day covers. He formed an outstanding collection
of the rates and usages of the U.S. Presidential series that has won
national grand awards.
