Afficher les détails Masquer les détails

Nickle, Sam 1912 or 1913-1994 : Sam C. Nickle was a native of Winnipeg who settled in Calgary with his family, wife Rosemary (also a philatelist of note) and daughter. He worked in the oil industry since the early 1930's, and was Vice-President of Canadian Gridoil Ltd. Mr. Nickle belonged to major Canadian petroleum societies and was an active member of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce. He served in Canada's Military Intelligence during World War II, and was a Calgary Highlander. He established the Nickle Map Service Ltd. in 1935.

Sam Nickle first became interested in stamps during childhood. He first exhibited his collections at the YMCA Boys Fair in 1925 in Calgary. His philatelic interests were Canadiana. At an early stage, he became interested in Small Queen's in the collection of Dr. Manson, but the latter persuaded Nickle to change his collecting interests to the stamps and postal history of Canada. Over the years, Mr. Nickle centred his collecting around the Province of Canada, 1851-1867, especially early military mails, and pence issues. As well as stamps, he also collected silver, glass, history, maps, and prints.

Sam Nickle was also involved in philatelic organizations, serving 15 years on the National Postal Museum Advisory Committee and was on the Canada Post Stamp Advisory Committee. He was a past President of the Calgary Philatelic Society, a life member of the British North America Philatelic Society (BNAPS), the Royal Philatelic Society of Canada, and a member of the Order of the Beaver from BNAPS. During his collecting years Nickle was a frequent exhibitor at BNAPS where he won several medals, hosted BNAPEX 66, 73 and 85, and served on local, national, and international juries.
