Philatelic season returns this January as Peachtree Corners, Georgia, USA, gets set to host the Southeastern Stamp Expo from the 23rd to the 25th. Folders snap open. Collectors lean over tables, muttering abbreviations only insiders understand. Dealers arrange albums in neat rows, while local clubs fill corners with nods, laughs, and quick appraisals. The Expo doesn’t just display history—it lets visitors hold it, question it, and argue about it. The program spans three full days. Over 140 competitive exhibit frames present diverse collections. Twenty-two dealers prepare sales tables with material from both domestic and international markets. Each participant brings items that reflect current demand and deeper historical value. Local clubs manage the seminars, workshops, and discussions. Speakers guide the audience through topics like postal history, thematic collecting, and family inheritance evaluation. Volunteers assist guests, answer questions, and create a welcoming space for new collectors. Affordable entry and free parking remove barriers. The Expo encourages attendance from beginners and veterans alike. Organizers preserve the educational mission while adapting to modern interests. The 2026 show opens the season with strong momentum and shared enthusiasm.
