Second IAP Symposium at Chicagopex 2015
Join us at Chicagopex! Itasca, IL, 18-19 November, 2015.
The U.S. Philatelic Classics Society has had a strategic alliance with The Institute for Analytical Philately since IAP’s founding. Many Classics Society members participated in IAP’s First International Symposium, which was held at the Smithsonian National Postal Museum in 2012.
By popular demand, IAP will hold a second symposium, this time in conjunction
with Chicagopex 2015. For the convenience of participants, the location is the Chicagopex show hotel, which will offer the same room rates as for the show to be
held on 20-22 November.
On Wednesday the 18th, participants will be treated to a cocktail party and buffet at the Collectors Club of Chicago, with transportation provided. Participants will also receive a free copy of the bound proceedings volume, which will be published by the Smithsonian Scholarly Press. Plan to stay on for Chicagopex!
Program: 16 speakers and poster session, to be announced in February
Cost: $75, paid in advance to IAP Treas. Nilsestuen nilsestuen@sbcglobal.net

Rooms: $129/night

The displays in the Spellman Museum’s galleries, open to the public, will include truly exceptional material from its holdings.
