On Oct. 19, the United Nations Postal Administration will present a first-day ceremony for its Diwali pane of 10 stamps and labels. Diwali is a five-day festival of lights celebration that originated in India and has spread around the world.

The show will feature more than 40 dealers, including a booth for Linn’s Stamp News and the Scott catalogs, and a number of auctions. New collectors, noncollectors and experienced philatelists are welcome.
On Saturday afternoon, H.R. Harmer will offer the “Elmer Campbell Collection of Germany and German Areas.” On Sunday afternoon, the House of Zion Public Auction for Charity will auction material from the Holyland, Palestine, World War I, Israel and more.
EBay is holding an affiliated online auction, beginning 8 a.m. Oct. 19 and continuing through 9 p.m. Oct. 26.
The show will include a youth booth with free gifts for children ages 6 to 10.
Also, ASDA is encouraging people who have inherited collections or wish to sell them to bring them to the show for appraisal.
Four societies will convene at the show: the Mobile Post Office Society, Ottoman and Near East Philatelic Society, New Jersey Postal History Society and Society of Australasian Specialists/Oceania. The Collectors Club of New York, the Royal Philatelic Society London and the Canal Zone Study Group will conduct regional meetings.
