SPECIAL REGULATIONS
FOR THE EVALUATION OF ONE FRAME EXHIBITS AT
'ESPAÑA 2004'
(EXPERIMENTAL)
Introduction
The purpose and concept of One Frame Exhibits are to encourage new exhibitors and to provide established exhibitors with the opportunity to prepare exhibits on subjects or themes that cannot be treated well in more than one frame.
One Frame Exhibits and their elements may come from any of FIP competitive classes.
Article 1: Competitive Exhibitions
In accordance with Article 1.4 of the FIP GREV, these Special Regulations have been developed to supplement the principles of GREV, Article 3, with particular regard to One Frame Exhibits.
Article 2: Competitive Exhibits
One Frame Exhibits contain philatelic/postal material pertinent to any one of the FIP approved classes. One Frame Exhibits are narrow in scope but the depth of treatment and importance is as complete as possible.
Exhibits in this class should not simply be One Frame extracted from a mu1tiple frame exhibit and should be based on a subject that is best treated as One Frame.
(Exhibits are also welcome from novice exhibitors who are developing a subject which is capable of expanding to more than One Frame in the near future).
Artic1e 3: Princip1es of Exhibit Composition
The principles defined in the Special Regulations of the FIP competitive classes for Traditional Philately, Postal History, Postal Stationery, Thematic Philately, Aerophilately, Astrophilately, Maximaphily and Revenues (in the Youth class only in an age group C) are also valid for One Frame Exhibits.
Emphasis is placed upon knowledge, presentation and development -the exhibit should hold visitors' attention from the first to the last page and be informative, as well as educational.
One Frame Exhibits are a chance for both beginners and advanced exhibitors.
