Rocky Mountain Stamp Show 2025
The 74th Rocky Mountain Stamp Show will take place May 23-25, 2025, at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds in Aurora, CO. On behalf of our dedicated committee, I would like to welcome you to our website where you will be able to learn about our exhibits, dealers, activities, and so much more. We are excited to have the American Air Mail Society and the Scandinavian Collectors Club with us at the show. This year we are expecting to fill the 400 available frames with world-class exhibits from our convening societies and the participants in the AAPE-sponsored George Brett Cup Competition. Our bourse floor will accommodate 32 dealer booths and 13 society and activity booths providing something for collectors of all areas and topics. In conjunction with the USPS, we will have a First Day of Issue ceremony for the new Baby Animal stamps on Friday at 11:00. There will also be a Postcrossing Meetup; if you don’t know what that is, head to www.postcrossing.com. The 2025 show theme is ‘Scenic Colorado’ and we have three magnificent cachets, one for each day, that reflect the beauty in our state. We will have our popular What’s in Your Attic? booth where you can learn about an inherited accumulation or rekindle your interest in a long-neglected collection. The CYPHER Stamp Club (Colorado Young Philatelic Explorers and Researchers) will have youth activities, including Stamp Collecting Merit Badge classes, scheduled throughout the show. Our show wouldn’t be complete without the Rocky Mountain Philatelic Library’s Silent Auction, a major fundraiser for this important volunteer-run philatelic community resource. There’s plenty happening this year - we’re looking forward to seeing you there!
