(wm-pcp) As with every World Philatelic Exhibition, an ‘official’ catalogue (format B5, 17 cm x 24 cm) will be published for IBRA 2023, containing all the information about the event. Overviews of special shows, the competition classes and their participants or exhibits, the treasury, the cover and excursion programme, the literature area as well as the dealer and postal stands and much more are included in the catalogue. There are also some technical articles dedicated to the respective special shows.

About 270 pages were thus collected, of which, however, more than 30 pages are advertisements by trading companies and postal administrations. Hardly anyone would have thought this possible, but this active support of the trade thus made it possible to offer this colour catalogue at the low price of 10 Euros.

So anyone who wants to get some information in advance before visiting or participating in IBRA is advised to purchase it early. The catalogue can be ordered from 1 April 2023 via the IBRA website. The shipping costs can also be found there. During the exhibition, the catalogue will be available at the exhibition information desk in the glass foyer (in front of Hall 8), at an information desk in Hall 8 and at the IBRA stand in the Center Philately.
