AAPE Herdenberg Award

The Herdenberg Award, named in honor of Ralph and Bette Herdenberg of Chicago, Founding Members and early workers for AAPE's success, is given once each year to a member who has given long and distinguished service to the Society. The selection committee, composed of the immediate three living past presidents, makes a recommendation to the Board at the STAMPSHOW meeting, and the award is then announced in the next available issue of The Philatelic Exhibitor, and the honoree is recognized at the following AmeriStamp Expo. The award consists of a stipend of up to $500 to be used for item or items of the winner's choice.
