ler totalmente First Day Cover Philatelic Exhibiting: A Master Class

This is one of the finest books ever written on preparing a stamp exhibit. It is also, the best book ever written on how to prepare a First-Day Cover Stamp exhibit.

This is an extraordinary book. Philately is fortunate to have great philatelic exhibitors, accomplished writers, and successful philatelic educators. The number of philatelists in any generation who excel in all these areas is very small.

Andrew McFarlane, the author of this book, is a rare gem in the philatelic world. He’s a successful exhibitor with over 50 gold medals awarded; a feat achieved by only a select few. His prowess as a writer is equally impressive.
Andrew’s previous book, Creating the Philatelic Exhibit Synopsis: A Master Class, took the philatelic exhibiting world by storm and is philatelic bestseller. He’s done it again! This book is the most detailed and comprehensive guide to preparing First Day Cover exhibits – and other types of stamp exhibits – ever prepared.

The book is designed to be useful to Collectors who want to use the organization and techniques of exhibiting to enhance their collection, Exhibitors (or want to be exhibitors) interested in creating or improving a first day cover exhibit, and Judges looking for a better understanding of the anatomy of a first-day cover exhibit and the many challenges in preparing one.

The book addresses key steps in preparing an exhibit.

• Including Necessary Elements: The individual pieces, or building blocks, that comprise each type of a first day cover exhibit. These include the stamp’s production, issuance, first day events, first day use, cachet production, and lastly and, perhaps the most challenging, commercial use.
• Applying Judging Standards: The judging standards and how they apply to each type of first day cover exhibit. This includes a detailed look at what items go into each type of FDC exhibit. Knowing how the exhibit is judged helps build a stronger exhibit.
• Preparing Key Sections: The essential parts of your exhibit that the Judges examine first and serve a different purpose from the rest of the exhibit. These include the title page, the epilogue, and the synopsis. Exhibitors need to know how some of the ways judges judge stamp exhibits.
• Conducting Research: Many aspects of researching an FDC exhibit are the same as those of a traditional one. However, some areas require a specialized touch.
• Putting it All Together: How to use exhibiting tools and techniques necessary to construct your First Day Cover exhibit. Methods of organizing your exhibit, identification of ‘fixed’ sequence and ‘variable’ sequence of material, and practical mounting techniques.

These elements elevate the book beyond previous efforts to guide exhibitors and aspiring exhibitors in preparing an exhibit and individual exhibit pages. The book does not stop there. It presents an array of choices and options available to the exhibitor, further helping exhibitors make informed decisions about their exhibits and enhancing the quality of their work.

Like all good teachers, Andrew speaks from experience. He presents his mistakes and successful techniques that have served him well. Andrew's lessons are based upon his experiences and buttressed by his extensive interactions with other mostly successful exhibitors and judges—both those who critiqued his exhibit in small ways and those who critiqued it in more extensive ways—to make this the finest exhibiting book prepared to date.
