Wilkpex 2025 in Pittsburgh April 12-13

By Linn’s Staff

The Wilkinsburg Stamp Club will host the 75th annual Wilkpex stamp and postcard show April 12-13 at the Holiday Park Fire Hall, 415 Old Abers Creek Road, Pittsburgh, Pa.

Hours will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. Admission and off-street parking will be free.

The show will include a bourse (sales area) with seven dealers, a “philatelic phlea market” with bargain stamps and collections offered by club members, and exhibits of stamps and covers by club members.

For new collectors of all ages, the show will have a table with a Wilkinsburg Stamp Club member to assist novices with the basics of stamp collecting.

The Wilkpex 2025 souvenir sheet will spoof the recent Pinback Buttons stamps issued by the United States Postal Service (Scott 5919-5928). The sheet will be available at the show or by mail, priced at 75¢ for one sheet and $1.25 for two. Souvenir sheets from previous shows are also available.

The show cachet commemorates Andrew McCutchen, current player for the Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team. The cover is $3 or two for $5.

The cacheted show covers and souvenir sheets from the current and previous shows can be ordered from Eugene Bujdos, 1104 Diller Ave., Pittsburgh, PA 15207. Please enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope with your order.
