November 2009 Looks like 2009 has been a very quiet year. I am placing here some links from the home page: See Award Winning Revenue Front & Leader Pages Collect Israeli Revenues? Read about them here .pdf
---- 4 October 2008 Dear Revenue Society I would be grateful if you could find time to publicise the FIP World Philatelic Exhibition which takes place in Lisbon, Portugal, from 1st to 10th October 2010. This is a full FIP show which includes all of the traditional classes, youth, literature, open class and one frame entries with approximately 3000 competitive frames. I am the British Commissioner, exhibition application forms and the second bulletin is now available from me for stamps to the value of £1.00. The closing date for receipt of entries is 30th May 2009, and I will need to have these by 30th April 2009.

It is unknown how this was published in this manner as it in no way 'fits' the original draft. We sincerely apologise to Peter for any inconvenience this may have caused. A copy of the original article can be seen by clicking here ---- 22 December 2007 Busy times ahead after the success of the November Auction. We now have another fine article loaded onto the Feature Article page by John Hillson of the USA. Another 1 frame has been added to the Invited Displays this time on Victoria [Australia]. Do you have an exhibit you feel would be suitable for display to the world? if so drop Dave Elsmore an email. Our Departure Tax page is filling nicely, we now have just under 100 pictures for your enjoyment. Canada leads the way with Chris Ryan doing a marvellous job on this section. Can you add to any to any country? do you know a date of issue? if so let us know. Are you going on Christmas holidays? if so, save your departure tax and send us a scan. January, Revenue of the Month has been added a week early, this page appears to be popular drawing plenty of comments from members and non members alike. ---- 13 August 2007 Can you add to our Airport Departure Tax page? Have a dig in your collection and report what you have found to Dave Elsmore ---- 10th September 2007 Don't forget to vote on our constitutional changes, have a look here ---- 15th September 2007 Extract from the: Committee Meeting Minutes – 1st September 2007. "The Committee noted that the Society has now paid a significant amount of money for members’ frame fees, though this has not brought in many new revenue exhibitors or exhibits. After some discussion, the Committee voted to end the scheme in its present form: specifically, with effect from 1st January 2008, frame fees will only be paid for members who are exhibiting revenues for the first time. No cash prizes will be made for exhibiting, regardless of the level of award achieved". ---- start |
