2022 awards won by BNAPS members

2021-2025 awards►
To acknowledge the philatelic endeavours of BNAPS members and their success in exhibiting BNA material, we list the awards they have won.
The listing covers exhibit awards for BNA exhibits and BNA literature at National exhibitions in Canada and the United States and FIP-sponsored International exhibitions. It also covers non-exhibit awards that recognize the philatelic achievements of members.
Many exhibitions use a points-based system to evaluate exhibits. A number after a medal is the number of points the exhibit was awarded.
In some exhibitions, notably International ones, single frame exhibits are given numeric scores, but are not awarded medals. In the listings below, a "medal equivalent" is specified in addition to the numeric score. The "medal equivalent" is determined using the medals and scores awarded to multi-frame exhibits as a guide.
If you think we've missed any awards, let us know. Contact Adri Veenstra (email: a.veenstra@chello.nl) who compiled the listings.

Not included in the table are Court of Honour exhibits, and non-competitive exhibits, and non-exhibit awards.
The numbers are phenomenal! 232 competitive exhibits washes away the previous high, 157 in 2018. What propelled this record is the International level with 128 exhibits (previous high was 16 in 2016), including 72 single frame exhibits and 44 literature entries. This record marks an amazing resurgence after the COVID-19 pandemic shut down in-person exhibitions in 2020 and much of 2021.
Why the phenomenal numbers? Easy. CAPEX 22, the International one-frame exhibition held in Toronto from 9 to 12 June. Besides being the largest one-frame exhibition ever held, CAPEX 22 featured a literature competition, encompassing both print and digital media. Congratulations to the organizers for staging an outstanding, ground-breaking show. Also helping the International numbers was London 2022, originally scheduled for 2020 before COVID-19 shut it down. Participation by BNAPS exhibitors was high and included several literature exhibits.
Another record: 2022 saw 100 BNAPS members exhibiting. The exhibitors are to be commended for their efforts.
More than a third of the exhibits were awarded a Large Gold or Gold, a testament to their quality. Note that the number of Large Gold, Large Vermeil, and Large Silver medals is understated because some shows, BNAPEX among them, do not distinguish between these medals and Gold, Vermeil, and Silver ones. Most Nationals and Internationals judge exhibits using a points system. For multi-frame exhibits, the medal awarded to the exhibit is based on the point count. Single frame exhibits are not awarded medals; however, to compile the summary table above, a medal level was determined using the multi-frame point count. Another complication: the mapping from point count to medal level is different for International and National exhibitions. For example, an International exhibit must earn 95 to 100 points to get a Large Gold, whereas a National exhibit earning 90 to 100 points gets the same medal.
BNAPS sponsors several special BNA exhibit awards at National and Regional shows in Canada and the U.S. The awards include: Best BNA exhibit, Best BNA One Frame, Best Researched BNA, Best BNA 2 to 4 Frame, and the John D. Arn White Queen Award for best BNA Elizabethan exhibit. For more information on these awards, contact the BNAPS Awards Coordinator, whose email address is given under "Appointed Officials". The RPSC, PHSC, PSSC, and other specialist societies also sponsor special awards. And shows have their own special awards to recognize best-in-class exhibits.
This compilation does not include non-BNA exhibits by BNAPS members or BNA exhibits by non-members. Some exhibits may figure more than once in the awards tabulation because they were displayed at more than one show.
