's
2018 Literature Competition
and
another medal in the Chicagopex Philatelic Literature Exhibition...a rare feat for a first time author! Here is what the book is about...
"The electrifying 1901 Pan American Exposition in Buffalo, New York offered a spirited message of hope and possibility. Over eight million people flocked to the spectacular Pan Am, and there were substantial opportunities for businessmen to profit. Two very different people did so by creating souvenir "cinderella" stamps for the event. One was a reputable man who sold over four million Expo stamps and became a respected philatelic expert; the other was a traveling charlatan who later drifted into the darkness of forgery and swindling.
Their
fascinating stories and adventures
are inside this book. The items they created, that are an ever-increasing attraction to stamp collectors and lovers of intrigue alike, are beautifully pictured and precisely detailed inside as well!
Buffalo Cinderellas
is a high-quality hardcover, 182 pages in length, printed on a fine paper stock, with over 400 pictures, including 338 full-color images. Also included is an
extremely detailed, fully illustrated 24 page "Stamp Appendix"
which will help collectors in ways that have been previously unavailable with regard to the Exposition souvenir stamps."
Besides the book's front and back covers, several other pictures are provided in this listing, including the Table of Contents, the first two pages of a chapter, a page from the unbelievable full color Stamp Appendix, a review from
The Cinderella Philatelist
publication, and Rick receiving the APS Gold Medal for his incredible six year odyssey which became
