    CLIFTON — The Clifton Fall Stamp, Postcard, and Cover Show will be held on Saturday, September 30, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Sunday, October 1, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Clifton Community Recreation Center, 1232 Main Ave. at Washington Ave., Clifton. Admission and parking are free. Combining the world of stamp, cover, and postcard collecting, the show provides collectors and non-collectors alike with an opportunity to view and appreciate the challenge and variety that these hobbies offer as either individual or family pastimes. All participating dealers possess a broad and diverse level of knowledge which they are happy to share with others. In the best tradition of a well-rounded show, collectors will be able to leisurely examine stamps, covers, postcards, supplies and collateral materials from all areas. There will be door prizes on Saturday and Sunday. Both days’ winners will be notified by mail or telephone. Sample periodicals and other information will be available at no charge. The US Postal Service will be available with a variety of new and recently issued stamps and stationery. A special show postmark will also be available. Established in 1985 by the Clifton Stamp Society, this is the only regularly scheduled show of its kind covering Passaic, Bergen, Essex and Morris Counties. Additional information concerning the show or the society’s regularly scheduled meetings is available at www.cliftonnj.org/stamp or by calling 973-470-5956.
