-- About the FPCSC and SESCAL --
SESCAL is the annual Stamp Exhibition of Southern California sponsored by the Federated Philatelic Clubs of Southern California. Founded in the mid-1940s, this is the 62nd year for this exhibition. Originally, SESCAL was held at various locations near downtown Los Angeles, including the Elk's Club. From 1959 to 1976 the show was held in what was first a Statler Hotel and then became a Hilton Hotel. In 1977 we moved out to the Wilshire District and the world-famous Ambassador Hotel. In 1988 the show moved to its present venue, the closest hotel to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Originally the Hyatt at LAX, later operated by Wyndham, this hotel has been completely refurbished and now carries the Radisson name.
-- The SESCAL 2009 Committee --
We are pleased to introduce the collectors who are responsible for putting this year's SESCAL together. Some of these people have been working with this exhibition for over 20 years, others are new to the Committee in the past few years, and all have been involved with SESCAL in various ways for many years. It is their knowledge and labor that helps put the show together each year. Most of these people have e-mail and a link is given for them. In addition, the year that each person first served on the SESCAL Committee is given. As other photos are acquired, they will be added here.
