The Fairs

The Association was formed on 8th October 1968 and held its first Stamp Fair at the Houldsworth Hall in Deansgate, Manchester almost exactly one year later on Saturday, 4th October 1969. The fair became an annual event for 15 years until, in 1984, a January fair was added to the calendar. After seven years with two fairs a year a third was added in April from 1991. The pattern of three fairs, January, April, and October continues with fairs being held at the

Sale Grammar School on Marsland Road, Sale.
(see map).

There is plenty of free car parking and refreshments are available throughout the day. There are usually about 15 - 20 dealers taking stands, all either members of the Association or of the Merseyside Stamp Dealers Society.
