2023 Show Theme

Each year, the organizing committee of the Southeastern Stamp Expo selects a theme for the show.  Our theme manifests itself in our advertising, our commemorative show cover, a write-up in our show program, including the philatelic aspects of the theme, and, oftentimes, presentations and exhibits supporting the theme as well.

Our Show Theme for the 2023 SESE is the 150th anniversary of the first U.S. Postal Card, Scott UX1.
