NORDIA 2014
WELCOME TO NORDIA 2014.
The philatelic exhibitions of NORDIA have been a tradition for many years. Last year Iceland
was host for this show, and now it is The Norwegian Federation of Philatelists, in co-operation
with Oslo Filatelistklubb and Posten Norge, to do the arrangements.
Through the years every Nordic country has arranged this show every five years, except in one
occasion when Scandinavian Collectors Club, USA, made the arrangement in Tuscon, Arizona
the year 2001.
The previous arrangement in Norway was 2008 in Stavanger, when Stavanger was culture
capital in Europe, and the philatelic exhibition was part of the celebration. The two cities of
Fredrikstad and Kristiansand also hosted the Nordia-exhibitions in 1989, 1992 and 2002.
This year -2014 – which is a very special year for Norway, - we have again the pleasure of
inviting all our Nordic friends in philately to visit, together with our friends in USA and Great
Britain. We are proud to celebrate the 200-years anniversary for the Norwegian Constitution,
probably the most important historical event in “modern” Norwegian history.
NORDIA-2014 is part of this celebration, showing philatelic items connected to the historical
events, in addition to a diversity of exhibits showing philately from all over the world, postal
history with local connections, thematic exhibits, - probably enough to satisfy any collector
wanting to pay us a visit. Hours and hours of work have been spent to find these items, using
them to tell interesting stories with philatelic items as illustrations, which may fascinate the
public.
This is also a competition, a Nordic championship one may say, where the exhibits have been
through national qualifications to achieve the possibility to participate. An international jury
will examine all the exhibits, to find scarce material in exceptional quality, look at the
presentation of the items in a context of history, evaluating the knowledge of the exhibitor by
the exhibitor’s describing of the items. At the end of the show there will be a prize ceremony,
like for all competitions. For the spectator this will be an exciting event, and the show is in fact
a possibility to see something you may wait several years to ever see again.
The show is located at Norges Varemesse, Lillestrøm, only a ten minute train ride from the
Oslo Central Station. The hotel facilities are therefore located in Oslo, and may be a nice
occasion to visit other attractions. Some 700-800 frames will be shown, each frame covering
16 A-4 sheets with philatelic material, collected through many years. This is what some of our
hobby is all about. It is also a social event, meeting friends and people sharing the same
interest. It is a cultural happening.
I hope for an exciting exhibition, lots of people attending, and I want to invite as many as
possible to have a look at what philatelists are doing during spare time. You may have a
positive surprise – so please take a trip to Norges Varemesse 21. - 23. november 2014.
You are welcome!
Ivar Sundsbø – leader of the exhibition committee.
