Vancouver Postcard Club Sale

Back to Newsletter index

The Vancouver Postcard Club held its annual sale and show on Sunday May 27th, from 10am to 4pm, at the Hastings Community Center, across from the Pacific National Exhibition grounds. About 150 people attended this year’s show, according to show chairman Don Steele.

There were 27 tables rented to dealers from as far away as Edmonton, Alberta. Early attendance was mandatory this year as parking was non existent later in the day as the Vancouver Giants and Medicine Hat Tigers faced off for the Memorial Cup Hockey final, in the nearby Pacific Coliseum.
