This album was started as a diversion from my rigid and serious US collection. I have been showing some of the stamps on the topic https://goscf.com/t/3122 I am still tweaking the cover page and just wanted to know what you think. This whole topical is just meant to be fun.

Definitely looks a bit strange

Although I would have given it a more "1880 Frakshow" look with an "older" design and font. Something like this:

I like those old designs

Are you 'only' collecting unusual shapes in that album, or otherwise strange stamps too? I just thought of that Swiss chocolate stamp that smells and tastes like chocolate and the like.

Drudenfus, I had thought about scroll work on the borders but your idea was great. I might try a version of this.

Bob of the many GGGG's check mail.
