<p>[QUOTE="gsalexan, post: 1970518, member: 24274"]On the same centennial theme, 2015 also marks the 100th anniversary of the 1915 Panama-California Exposition, held in San Diego. This event was overshadowed by the larger world's fair further north, but at the time the BEP produced a set of souvenir cards for each one. One card in particular, depicting the battleship U.S.S. San Diego, would make an excellent choice for an intaglio print. In addition, marketing could raise visibility by sharing the story of the printing plate's disappearance following the fair, only to resurface on eBay in 2005. This story may be well known in the Bureau, but few collectors have heard about this mystery and news sources would find it irresistible. SANDICAL, held in San Diego each January, is one of the largest stamp shows in California and would be a perfect venue for a rollout. The APS AmeriStamp Expo, set for February 2015 in Riverside, CA could work well, also.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]349572[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
