Keeping up with prolific new issues appears to be an endless task. Am thinking that there needs to be a tighter rein on what is issued and for what reason. I don't think that participation is enough of a reason unless it is a country's very first time. When I first started collecting Olympics thematically I focussed on host country issues only. Am thinking that unless there is a spectacularly good reason for an Olympic superlative or superlative Olympian that restricting Olympic issues to host countries and bid candidates would be a very good place to start.
I very much appreciate being corrected in an email by Thomas Lippert for unintentionally repeating a historical error in the last issue. It was not until the IOC's 24th Session in Lisbon in 1926 that the IOC retroactively recognised 'International Winter Sports Week', held in Chamonix in 1924, as its first Winter Olympic Games. Not the IOC's 8th Congress in Prague in 1925 where the IOC decided to initiate a series of Winter Olympic Games. My apologies for that error. It is also quite encouraging to receive that communication as evidence that at least one person read the first page of the last issue.
Earlier this year I was deeply affected by the loss of a dear friend. During his lifetime, he had worked with Jesse Owens (athletics, Berlin 1936) as his Press/PR Officer, he knew Jack Kelly (rowing, 1920 Antwerp and 1924 Paris) socially (and that included his sister Grace Kelly, the actor and Princess of Monaco) and was a spectator at a swimming/diving show starring Johnny Weissmuller (swimming, Paris 1924 and Amsterdam 1928). None of which he would have ever mentioned had I not mentioned my Olympic hobby.
He was a very modest man and am certain he would not want me to mention his name. He recommended that I visit the filming location of Johnny Weissmuller's Tarzan movies, at Wakulla Springs in Florida, which I did. When I visited Philadelphia he showed me the river where Jack Kelly used to train. As a result I feel stronger connections with these Olympians than with others, even though I did not meet them personally. I will miss hearing the stories about those times and every time I hear the names of these Olympians I will think of him.

23rd World Olympic Collectors Fair BRATISLAVA. SLOVAKIA * 8-10 September 2017 Invitation
The AICO Executive Board and the Organizers are pleased to announce that the 23rd World Olympic Collectors Fair -- BRATISLAVA 2017 — will take place from 8-10 September 2017 it, Bratislava. Slovakia. e take this opportunity to invite Olympic collectors from around the world, and especially from our AICO Member Clubs, to participate. The organizer of the 230 WOCF is the Slovak Society of Olympic and Sports Collectors (SSOSC) with the support and cooperation of the Slovak Otympk Committee :inc.' the Slovak Olympic and Sports Museum. The World Olympic Collectors Fair will be held in conjunction with celebrations marking the 25th anniversary of the Slovak Olympic Committee. We express our gratitude to our Slovak friends for taking part in organizing this event on such short notice. Unfortunately, the China Sport Philately and Collection Association (CSPCA) had to withdraw from organizing the fair; the Chinese collectors were most keen on implementing the 2017 WOCF. We also express our gratitude to the Hungarian Olympic and Sport Philatelic Association (MOSEIT) and the Hungarian Philatelic Association (MABEOS2), who voiced their desire to hold the fair in Budapest. but unforeseen circumstances made this impossible. It was only this week that the SSOSC and the Executive Board of AICO received the final confirmation of the Bratislava fair. Additional details are forthcoming. Dr. Branislav Delej, who is directing the preparations, has already commissioned the creation of a 23rd WOCF website and, more importantly, a registration system for fair participants. The registration fees and the final venue for the fair (which promises to be very attractive) will be announced shortly on the AICO website and through direct communications to our AICO Member Clubs. We hope, despite the short lead time, that collectors will enthusiastically embrace the 23rd WOG and join Olympic collectors from around the world In Bratislava in September. WELCOME I!! We are very grateful for the support and assistance of Ms. Stephanie Coppex and the Olympic Foundation for Culture and Heritage.
