Rocky Mountain Stamp Show May 26-28 Celebrates ‘The Birds of Colorado’

 The 72nd Rocky Mountain Stamp Show will take place May 26-28, 2023, at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds Exhibition Halls A & B, 25690 E Quincy Ave., Aurora, CO 80016. Hours are Fri. & Sat. 10am-6pm and Sun. 10am-3pm.  The event is free and open to the public.
 This year the event is expected to fill the 400 available frames with world class exhibits from their convening societies and the participants in the AAPE sponsored George Brett Cup Competition.
 The bourse floor will accommodate 42 dealer booths and 13 society and activity booths. The 2023 show theme is ‘The Birds of Colorado.’ There will be their popular ‘What’s in Your Attic?’ booth where you can learn about an inherited accumulation or rekindle your interest in a long-neglected collection. The CYPHER (Colorado Young Philatelic Explorers & Researchers) Stamp Club will have youth activities scheduled throughout the show, including a Stamp Collecting Merit Badge class on Sunday May 28th at 10am. This show wouldn’t be complete without the Rocky Mountain Philatelic Library’s silent auction, a major fundraiser for this important volunteer-run philatelic community resource. They are looking forward to hosting the largest show in our region for a second year at the ‘new’ venue. It truly has some strong advantages over the ‘old’ venue (better lighting, more space, less noise, better food choices on site) and right across the hall will be the Denver Postcard and Paper Show. The official show hotel and site of the awards banquet is the DoubleTree by Hilton – Denver/Aurora, 13696 E Iliff Pl., Aurora, CO 80016.  A free shuttle for hotel guests will provide rides between the hotel and fairgrounds during show hours.

 The Denver Postcard and Paper Show is offering free admission for the May event held in conjunction with the Rocky Mountain Stamp Show at the        Arapahoe County Fairgrounds. The exhibit hall will be full with about 20 dealers offering postcards, photographs, posters, travel, art, small collectibles and many more items.  Plenty of FREE parking.  The postcard show is open on Friday from 10am-6pm and Saturday from 9:30am-4pm.
