Dewey sweeps! Anthony Dewey’s exhibits at Southeastern Stamp Expo won the multi-frame Grand Award (“The 3ยข Connecticut Tercentenary Issue of 1935 and its First Days”), the Reserve Grand (“The U.S. Alphabet-Denominated Rate-Change Series, 1978-1998”) and the Single-Frame Grand (“The War Rate: United States Postal Rates and Fees from February 1, 1815”). No one can recall a single exhibitor winning the top three awards at the same show.
Tony is shown above with his trophies and his wife Martha. Below, he accepts the SESE Grand from show chair Scott Marks and jury selection co-chair Douglas Clark.
All three exhibits won Large Gold Medals. The Connecticut exhibit also won the American First Day Cover Society award .and the U.S. Stamp Society Statue of Freedom Award.
We will post a link to the palmares (list of show awards) as soon as they are available.
