Everyone should mark their calendars and begin making plans to attend the Vatican Stamp Day at the Spellman Museum planned for next October. The purpose of this event is to introduce the benefits of being members of the Vatican Philatelic Society to other stamp collectors and spend some time talking about Vatican stamps. Remember, Cardinal Spellman (1889 - 1967) was a member of the VPS and we are hoping to get a chance to see some of his collection. Come have some fun, meet other VPS members, and talk about Vatican stamps!
