— NAPEX cards —
( prefix: NA )
National Philatelic Exhibitions of Washington, DC, Inc., better known as NAPEX, has been hosting annual shows in DC since 1950. In 1987, NAPEX put out its first souvenir card. These were offset printed until 1999 when Mike Bean began printing intaglio cards; this practice continues today. NAPEX also overprints additional cards for their show banquet. These banquet varieties have a simple printed notation, with a serial number added by hand. Banquet cards have been given an "A" suffix in these listings (NA-21A, for example). Special thanks to Steve and Otto Thamasett for their help in scanning the cards in this category. Many are still for sale on the NAPEX website.
