International Match Safe

Association and Museum

 

 

 

 

 

Welcome!

The International Match Safe Association was founded in September 1998 by 26 enthusiasts from three countries. The IMSA is dedicated to the collecting and preservation of match safes, and to further match safe research and education. 

IMSA is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit association established to promote the preservation, education and study of match safes.

Membership ranges from novice collectors to some of the world's premiere collectors, authors, dealers and specialists.  We have
over 100 members from the United States, England, Canada, Australia, Scotland, Ireland, Belgium, Portugal, Germany, Japan, Israel and New Zealand.  Any individual or organization interested in match safes is welcome to join.


The IMSA publishes a quarterly newsletter with articles, price trends, reproduction information, classified ads and much more.  Classified ads are free to members and provide a great way to buy and sell items.

The IMSA holds an annual convention with informative presentations, live auctions, buy-sell-trade opportunities, Show & Tell and social activities.  Conventions are held in varying locations.  Just click on the Convention button to get details on this year's date and location.  These gatherings are a great place to network and meet collectors and dealers of similar interests.  Also, members are afforded the opportunity to see a vast array of match safes.
