The Wisconsin Federation of Stamp Clubs is a nonprofit organization
that consists of 30 local stamp collecting clubs within and bordering
the state of Wisconsin. It is currently offering participation in its
annual nationwide cover exchange program in which all stamp clubs,
philatelic organizations and individuals may participate.
The WFSC cover exchange program is being conducted in conjunction with
National Stamp Collecting Month in October. The exchange offer will
expire October 31, 2006, with returns being made to participants by
mid-November.
Participants must submit 10 all-alike covers and a large business-sized
envelope addressed and franked with 63-cents postage. In exchange,
eight different covers will be sent back (the extra covers will be used
for the WFSC youth program).
Only unaddressed cacheted covers on No. 6-sized envelopes, bearing
either pictorial or first-day cancels from the United States can be
submitted, with a limit of 20 covers. Clubs with leftover show,
commemorative and first-day covers can reduce their inventory by
exchanging them for different covers that can be used as club auction
items, door prizes or gifts.
The cover exchange program coordinator reserves the right to return
covers considered unsatisfactory for exchange.
Send covers to the Wisconsin Federation of Stamp Clubs, P.O. Box 1451,
Waukesha, WI 53187.
