Articles:
Members have been writing articles for the MIASMA! This is a great trend, please keep it going. Thank you. I might even have a few already for the next MIASMA!
Auction 22:
There are many items in Auction 22 and hopefully you can add some items to your collection.
I have hundreds of duplicate FDCs, MNH, and come other commercial covers. I might start getting images together and create a PDF or a web page with all of these items so they do not fill up the auction. I'll send out a list once it has been created.
Membership Update:
There are 114 members from 22 countries (4 new member since the last Miasma).
Always Looking for Articles: Please consider writing an article about some part of your malaria collection, or how you got started collecting malaria stamps, or about a doctor in the malaria field that can have supporting stamps with it, or new varieties that you have found, etc. All I need is the text and some images and I can put together the web page. A text file, MS Word file, and many other formats will work. If you have an exhibit that has interesting malaria items in it, please send scans of the exhibit pages and I can add them to the site.
