After almost three years of planning, CAPEX 22 is ready to open its doors tomorrow to philatelists and the general public from across the world for the first International One-Frame Stamp Championship Exhibition.

The four-day show gets underway at 9 am this Thursday with the official opening ceremonies at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC). Canada Post will unveil five new stamps featuring nostalgic travel posters of popular Canadian tourist destinations, including an iconic Toronto hotel, as part of the opening ceremonies. The Vintage Travel Posters stamps feature bold and colourful ads from a golden age of commercial art and tourism marketing in Canada.
