With reports that the attendance was over 15&rsquo;000 people, I have an excuse for not doing my usual daily updates for this International Exhibition! People came from all over the world, with many familiar faces including some who had known David and Marcus for over 30 years, and plenty who we met for the first time.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>For us, the show began the day before the official opening, with Alex and Estelle arriving early to set up the specially prepared display for the newly re-discovered <a title=\"AMAZING DISCOVERY: The Mauritius \u201cPost Office\u201d Plate\" href=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/2015\/03\/amazing-discovery\/\">Mauritius \u00ab\u00a0Post Office\u00a0\u00bb printing plate<\/a>. We are very grateful to David Beech and Bill Hedley for their time and effort, as well as the Royal Philatelic Society of London and Chris Harman for the loan of several key items which further added to this fascinating story. The display included the famous <a title=\"The \u201cBombay\u201d Cover \u2013 an Aristocrat of Philately\" href=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/2015\/04\/the-bombay-cover-an-aristocrat-of-philately\/\">\u00ab\u00a0Bombay\u00a0\u00bb cover<\/a>, several reprints from the original plate made between 1910 and 1930, original correspondence between the then owner Maurice Burrus and the RPSL about the plate, and the original printing plates of the \u00ab\u00a0Post Paid\u00a0\u00bb issue. Interest in the display was understandably high, and we managed to sell out all the books we had published that we managed to take with us, as well as give away all the \u00ab\u00a0Post Office plate\u00a0\u00bb chocolates that the Burrus family had made especially.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Mauritius-Post-Office-plate-display-at-London-2015.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-14135\" src=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Mauritius-Post-Office-plate-display-at-London-2015-300x219.jpg\" alt=\"Mauritius Post Office plate display at London 2015\" width=\"300\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Mauritius-Post-Office-plate-display-at-London-2015-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Mauritius-Post-Office-plate-display-at-London-2015-1024x748.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Mauritius-Post-Office-plate-display-at-London-2015.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>At our stand, myself and Tony Banwell were on hand for clients wishing to view our offering of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/private-treaty\/\">Private Treaty<\/a>.

The Grand Prix (Best in Show) was awarded at a ceremony at the Guildhall in the City of London to Jamie Gough for his collection \u00ab\u00a0The UPU and Its Impact on Global Postal Services\u00a0\u00bb.

The festivities continued with an elegant dinner in the Crypts. Thankfully the speeches were brief and often amusing! Special mention goes to Patrick Maselis for his Toast to Philately.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/london-2015-exhibits.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-14131\" src=\"https:\/\/www.davidfeldman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/london-2015-exhibits.jpg\" alt=\"london 2015 exhibits\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" \/><\/a>Due to a lack of free time, I was unable to enjoy as many of the exhibits as I would have liked to. Perhaps for the first time ever, I think that the show could have even gone on for another day, such was the constant stream of people and the general buzz around the Business Design Centre in Islington. I did manage to see \u00ab\u00a0an old friend\u00a0\u00bb in the Monaco Club exhibition; the Swedish Treskiling Yellow; and for the first time I saw the famous GB \u00ab\u00a0Black and Blue\u00a0\u00bb Transatlantic Mulready.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, the biggest indicator for some time that our hobby is in a strong state of health.
