SOPEX 2025 Photo Roll

The Awards Table, SOPEX 2025

This past weekend another edition of SOPEX 2025, the Southern Oregon Philatelic Exhibition, has come and gone, with great success-- before we do our final sign-in sheet count, we estimate about double the visitors from last year. Enjoy these photos from the show, and as soon as I have the formal exhibitors awards list, I will publish that here with some additional photos of the exhibits.
