Over the past month, the excitement of the Great American Stamp Show (GASS) is spreading throughout the hobby. The show will be held at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois from August 12-15, 2021. The block at the Embassy Suites is already full and we’re getting closer to filling our block at the DoubleTree.
GASS is hosted by the American Philatelic Society, American First Day Cover Society and the American Topical Association. Participating dealers must be a member of one of these organizations.
Priority Selection
To receive priority selection, dealers must submit completed dealer booth reservation form and $100 deposit by May 7, 2021. Booth selection begins May 12, 2021 in priority order based on the past show participation.
We also have lower-priced booth options for dealers of low-cost material for beginning collectors, as well as reduced rate quarter stamp and dollar cover booths.
The Great American Stamp Show will be the largest philatelic event held in the United States in 2021. The event will include a First Day of Issue for the U.S. Postal Service, participation by at least 50 philatelic organizations and more than 700 frames of competitive exhibits.
Complete show information including dealer booth reservation forms and hotel information is available online at www.stamps.org/GASS.
We look forward to seeing everyone in Chicago!
