THE Improved Stamp Album.

Reading edition

With a rational plan for the arrangement of a collection of stamps. Copyrighted.

This is a blank album manufactured expressly for the purpose.

Good paper is used; size of pages 8½ by 11 inches; a neat border surrounds each page and an ornamental band at top for the reception of the name of the country. Neatly printed names are provided on adhesive paper.

Guards or stubs are bound between the pages, so that when filled it will not bulge, it is equally well adapted for postal cards, stamps or envelopes.

One thousand lithographed stamp mounts are furnished with each album. The stamp mounts are on a new plan, a neat black border surrounds the stamp, and the mounts are provided in different sizes for the various stamps.

No. 1. Album 168 pp., bound in cloth, good paper, with names and 1000 mounts; $2.00

No. 2. Album 328 pp., same as above but border printed on only one side of the page; $3.00

No. 3. Album 500 pp., same style as the No. 3, better paper, printed on one side of page; $5.00

No. 5. Portfolio, with 200 sheets fine card-board, printed on one side with names and mounts; $5.00

The album has given satisfaction wherever it has been sold.
