Steve Davis over at the Yahoo US_Specialized group, mentioned today that United States Stamp News (USSN) has won a vermeil medal in the Literature competition at this years APS StampShow. Several of the members in that group write for USSN, including myself. John Hotchner, the editor of USSN, and noted columnist for Linn’s Stamp News is also a member of the group. John also won a gold medal for his excellent work in the weekly US Notes column in Linn’s. Kudos to USSN and John Hotchner on a job well done!
