QUEZONPEX 3
Yesterday marked the virtual opening of the world's finest international virtual philatelic exhibit, QUEZONPEX 3. Co-sponsor, virtual exhibitor, and Australian blogmaster extrodinaire Michael Dodd of cddstamps says, " If you have not had a look yet, I do think it worth a few minutes, or more once you get started, to have a look at the exhibits that have been submitted. Open 24 hours a day so to speak … and for longer than just a few days as is the case with normal (that is physical) Stamp Shows and Exhibitions, and hey, no entrance fee." Michael goes on to say if you're looking for ideas about how to prepare and present an exhibition display this is a great place to start. I couldn't agree more. Even if exhibiting isn't your thing, there are some really interesting exhibits all of which are very extremely easy to navigate. So here's tip of the Round-Up tongs to show organizer Alberto Z. Acala of the Philippines, his helpers and all the exhbitors who worked long and hard to put this together. Great job ! Alberto reached at maeca_mvcc@yahoo.com for more information or to find out how to get a copy of the show's souvenir cover, a virtual copy of which is shown above.

QUEZONPEX 3
I have written about this before but just wanted to remind you again – today was the first official day of the virtual philatelic exhibit, QUEZONPEX 3. Do have a look, it is really quite something http://www.freewebs.com/maeca68 This is the FDC that was issued for the exhibit. Rather nice.
.
Notice the little vehicle to the left, this is a Jeepney - a common public utility vehicle in the Philippines known for its sturdiness and colorful designs, it also shows the Coconut tree - the main crop of Quezon Province, popularly known as the tree of life.
Enjoy the exhibit, and hey … maybe think about an exhibit you could put together ... all the advice you need is there on the web site.
Best wishes … Michael
