FREE ADMISSION TICKET to the 2008 Toronto GTA Area Postcard Shows,  May 25 2008,  August 24 2008,  November 16 2008

Thornhill Community Centre in Markham ( York Region Ontario Canada )   Ontario's Best Postcard Dealers selling to Collectors. Deltiology,  Postal Hishtory, Ephemera,

 
 

What a great show on MAY 25th !   Thanks to everyone for coming !

We look forward to seeing you on August 24th

 
 

 

 

 

These shows were formerly held at Edwards Gardens and organized by John Laing of Postcard Canada.  Janet Dalton offered to take over the coordination of the shows in 2008.  We decided on the Thornhill Community Centre as the new location because it has a much larger room and will allow for more dealers and more " elbow room " for customers.  PLEASE ... Come check out the new shows !   FREE ADMISSION with printed flyer above ( otherwise a $2 admission charge ).    THOUSANDS & THOUSANDS of cards !   

Thornhill is just to the north of the Toronto in York Region – some would call it Markham.  An easy drive for anyone in Southern & Central Ontario.  Just a few hours drive for those of you in Buffalo, Niagara Falls and Rochester New York.  Please check the Google Map link to find out how close you are to the Thornhill Community Centre.
