On Saturday 19 April, the 14th edition of Filanumis was held in the Expohal in Houten. As the name suggests, this is a fair for both coin and stamp collectors. In addition to the 76 exhibitors who were there for everything related to coins and paper money, there were also 59 exhibitors for stamp collectors.
Of course, there were many Dutch exhibitors for stamp collectors, but there were also exhibitors from Belgium, Germany and France. There were also several associations present, such as Al Barid, Britannia, Israel and of course the Perfinclub Nederland. The stand was manned by Nico van der Lee and Pieter Reijbroek and when Jan Spekschoor arrived at half past eleven, it was very busy in the hall and at the PCN stand there were also a number of interested parties searching between the postal stationery and the offers with cards of loose perfins.
According to Nico van der Lee, a number of PCN members had already visited the stand and a candidate member had also signed up. The editor-in-chief of the magazine Filatelie was extensively informed by Pieter Reijbroek about everything the Perfinclub has to offer.

We know that perfins are in the spotlight, of course. But it is also very important to show your face regularly at fairs and because Houten is fairly central, many collectors come to it.
Compliments to Nico and Pieter who selflessly worked all day to promote the Perfinclub again.
