On November 8 and 9, this year’s 1-Frame Championship of the West Region took place in Rankweil. The exhibition was organized by the Bregenz Stamp Club and the Montfort Philatelic Club. A total of 28 exhibits were presented, 26 of which were in competition.
Our member Clemens Brandstetter became Regional Champion West in the thematic category with his exhibit “The Ustica Attack.” The postcard exhibits by Daniela on the theme of Saint Catherine, whose feast day is celebrated on November 23, were also very well received.
Alongside the competition, two first-day issues were presented: the special stamp “Snow Boots” and the supplementary block “Winter.” The exhibition was attended not only by visitors from Vorarlberg but also by enthusiasts from Tyrol, who traveled across the Arlberg, adding to the lively and engaging discussions.
