The organisers, the Deutsch-Französische Briefmarkenclub e.V. Trier, who will celebrate their 50th anniversary in 2023, invite exhibitors from Germany and abroad to participate. Application forms are available in German, French and Dutch. According to demand, the exhibition will accommodate as many as 2000 frames.
An article entitled “Authors’ Binding of ‘Fundamentals of Philately'” by Abhishek Bhuwalka on his blog (The Philatelist) brings to centre stage two philatelic legends: brothers Leon Norman Williams and Maurice Williams. What follows here is an updated version of what the author had already published in Philatelic Literature Review vol. 69 (2020), No. 4, based on the interview with Marcus, son of L.N. Williams, he had the rare opportunity to take.
