The NTSC just held its in-person 83rd Annual Exhibition on April 11 & 12, 2026 at the National Postage Stamp and Coin Show being held at the Hilton Mississauga/ Meadowvale Hotel, 6750 Mississauga Road, Mississauga, Ontario.
April 11 - Saturday hours: 10am-5pm. April 12 - Sunday hours: 10am-3pm.
Exhibiting is a great opportunity for collectors to share their interests with others and to promote our hobby to the public. We welcomed all collectors to consider showing any aspect of their collection that can entertain and/or educate the viewers.
Exhibitors were able to submit:
One-page exhibit (see special themes below)
One-frame (sixteen - 8½ x 11” pages or equivalent) exhibit or
A Multi-frame (multiples of 16 pages) exhibit.
If you were developing a new exhibit and would like to receive judges’ feedback, you could also exhibit a
½-frame study (eight – 8½ x 11” pages).
All philatelists were invited to enter an exhibit. Those exhibitors who entered an exhibit in the NTSC’s 2025 Virtual Exhibition were invited to show their entry in this in-person Exhibition. Exhibits were judged by a team of nationally accredited judges. Ribbons and medals were awarded soon after the Exhibition.
Submission Deadline was midnight March 29th 2026.
Collectors were encouraged to submit more than one exhibit.
Although you could submit any One-page exhibit, there was a special award for the page that best relates to one of these themes:
Equity
The letter “S” or
Purple

🆕 NEW STARTING 2026 🆕
To honour Garfield Portch (a veteran Toronto based philatelist and exhibitor who has served on the Board of the Vincent Graves Greene Philatelic Foundation for many years) and to encourage exhibiting and a friendly rivalry among the stamp clubs in Ontario, the North Toronto Stamp Club was pleased to announce the launch of The Garfield Portch Ontario Club Single Frame Competition. This new annual competition was featured at the Annual NTSC Stamp Exhibition at the National Postage Stamp & Coin Show
Any Ontario-based Philatelic club that is a member of the RPSC was able to compete by entering 3 single frame exhibits. Single frames are 16 single pages or equivalent. The winning club is the one with the largest accumulated points total as based on the judges' scores. Exhibitors indicated on the entry form that they would like their one-frame exhibit to be entered in the Single-Frame competition and which club they would like to represent. Any club which has more than 3 single frame exhibitors entering the competition was asked to select which 3 exhibits they would like to be included in the club competition.
The trophy will be hosted by the winning club for 6 months, then on exhibit at the Vincent Graves Greene Philatelic Foundation until the next competition.
