Results for the Northern National Competition 2021

The Palmares has been released, showing the awards in the Northern National Competition. The competition was held on line due to the cancellation of the Perth Exhibition due to Covid 19 restrictions. Thank you to all entrants and congratulations on providing very interesting exhibits.

The Chairman of the Judges, Bill Hedley, commented “This was the second ABPS National exhibition to be held virtually and I am delighted to report that, although the overall number of exhibits was not large, the standard was high and the exhibits covered a wide  range of topics from many different angles. My thanks go to all the exhibitors for helping us to have an interesting and varied exhibition.

Much outstanding material and research was on display and, from the point of view of the jury, it was a pleasure to be able to study the exhibits on-line and appreciate them fully. Two exhibits were moved from Open Class to Postal History Special Studies, and one from Cinderella to Aerophilately on the grounds that they fitted better in these classes. The jury included nine national jurors organised into three teams which used Zoom technology for meetings. This proved very successful and I would like to express my sincere thanks to all members of the jury and the secretariat for the hard work they have done to bring this exhibition to a successful conclusion.”
