"Unhealthy Prevailing over Healthy"


Dear Philatelist friends,

Once again, We, Ajay & Sudha Agrawal, are before you with an Appeal.
As we all are well aware that in any philatelic exhibition, an exhibit containing errors – perforation, color difference & omissions, cuts, misprints, etc. are given more marks than a exhibit containing healthy material. By no way I mean a healthy variety of philatelic item.

This approach is making our hobby unreachable for new comers as well as majority of the existing collectors. This type of material is not only too costly but is very difficult to get. But giving more marks to such material by the judges has made them essential in every exhibit. Many errors like color proofs, color trials, artist drawings with signature, have been announced as illegal by many a countries, but their absenteeism in an exhibit make it a poor one. No doubt these materials are good for study & research purpose, but for exhibition purpose……?.

A philatelist with complete & thorough knowledge of his subject coupled with healthy material & healthy varieties & philatelic knowledge, & with a beautiful presentation with good plan, gets less marks due to the fact that he has not put some errors in his exhibit. And a poor exhibit gets better marks just due to the fact that it contained some errors, which are not even allowed legally by the Postal Department.

According to us this practice should be stopped. There can be a separate section for error exhibits in an exhibition, if so needed, but in no way it can be compared with a Healthy exhibit.
Much can be written on this issue, but we think we have made the point clear.
If majority can agree, rules for evaluation can be changed.

Your views most welcome.
