My name is Jeff Shapiro from the Boston Metro Area. As you can tell from my Ebay nic "dirtyoldcovers" I collect and exhibit Twentieth Century postal history, including US (the Prexies, Clippers, 3c "Win the War") and German Post WWI Inflation. I also have an extensive accumulation of National Air Mail Week covers. I am an accredited APS Philatelic Judge as well as long-time Show Chair for Philatelic Show, held annually the first weekend of May. I'm a long-time member of the APS, USSS and AAPE and belong to five area stamp clubs. Now that I'm retired, I have more time to enjoy my stamps and philatelic "phriends" If I can assist any of you with postal history questions, let me know !

re: Boston-Strong Greetings !
Welcome Jeff! You are referring to the Philatelic Show in Boxborough May 2-4 are you not? If so, there will be a contingent of Stamporama members there! I will keep you in the loop and let you know more if you interested in chatting at some point.
BTW, I love Boston as long as I do not have to drive in the downtown area!
