PLEASE JOIN US FOR A TOUR OF THE WASHINGTON
                                      ART & RUBBER STAMP FESTIVAL
                               HELD IN PUYULLAP MAY 19 AND 20, 2001

We took pictures of shoppers, demonstrations, stamp company owners and their booths, plus more.
The reason we are presenting this tour is so that those who are unable to attend a convention can see
what goes on at one and so those who were there can reminisce about the good time that was had
by
all. We do not represent a show
promoter or any specific company other than our own, Stamps Galore.
This report is presented in the
spirit of "Rubber Stampers" who we always see having lots of fun at
shows. While you are reading this
introduction the pictures are loading so "kick back", relax and enjoy!

This show, one of the largest and best attended on the west coast, was held at the Western Washington
Fairgrounds in Puyallup, Washington. There were 73 exhibitors present with 40 on the first floor and
33 upstairs. Admission to the show was $5 per day or $6 for a two day pass. Pat and Eileen Larson of

An art display based on the theme,
"2001 - A STAMP ODYSSEY" is being viewed by three spectators
in picture #1. Participants can select
flyers, discount coupons, etc. from a table that is provided by
