The Congress Medal is a medal awarded each year at the Philatelic Congress of Great Britain to a single individual "in recognition of dedication to the hobby over many years".〔http://www.ukphilately.org.uk/haward.htm#congress〕 The first recipient of the medal was Wilfred Haworth at the 1959 Congress in Torquay.〔"Philatelic Congress of Great Britain, Part 3, 1946-1970" by Colin Searle in ''Gibbons Stamp Monthly'', April 2009, pp.85-90.〕 The original medal was designed by Ernest Hugen〔 but the design has since changed. The medal is not for philatelic excellence, but for voluntary endeavours particularly at a national level.〔 The winner is selected by the Awards Committee of the Association of British Philatelic Societies (ABPS) and must be nominated by an officer of a philatelic society affiliated to the ABPS.〔 == References == 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Congress Medal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
