Show Us Your Completed Album Pages!

Way to go Desert, very nice. Will be looking forward to more in the near future.

It's hard to believe it has been over a month since I last posted here. Continuing my run of completed Austria pages, here's the next one.

On the next page the Scenic Views return again, reissued in just two colors for the whole set, with a shade variety for the 20 groschen. Not that great for eye appeal. I have had the page completed for some time, but while scanning just now I noticed for the first time a slight scrape at the top of the 15 groschen, so will have to hunt for a new one, none in my duplicates

These next two pages have the complete original issue of the Costumes definitives, with a shade variety of the 1.50 schilling. I have an incomplete set of the 1958-59 issues of these, so no page for those yet.

Two pages for the set of the US Overrun Nations Series. What is your opinion on the extra selvage on the Belgium stamp? Leave it as whole as possible or remove it for symmetry and frame?

If it were me, I'd remove it for that particular stamp because it is not high value and the selvage is bare. I prefer the stamps fit within their frames.

Leave it. At worst, it protects the perforations.

First post here. Thanks to HipStamp vendors, I've now completed my Spanish Provincial Costumes 1968-1971 series. Sadly a couple suffered minor damage, being stuck to the stock cards they arrived on.

As no page is ever truly completed and set in stone, these are on Hagner pages, and will be properly annotated in due course.

Is there some special significance to the not your unusal shaped tags used on left side?

No significance.

Just some small price labels that I bought from Amazon that are a reasonable size to write on. I'm lazy, it saves cutting paper to size.

The shape is useful, a) to show it's a note, not a stamp and b) to help handling. They're only temporary, and can be updated as and when I want to add more info.

Spent the afternoon mounting some of the stamps I won from a Kelleher auction in October. I print to Scott National pages for my two-post album.

re: Washington/Newburgh
Scott 727, regular printing with gum. Six plates used. Plate block cv=$3.
Scott 752, same but no gum. The Farley special printing. Two of the above six plates used. Plate block cv=27.50
I am puzzled why Scott lists the plate block for the special printing with a significantly different value since one can merely soak plate blocks of the gummed 727. It takes gutters to prove a 752, not the absence of gum.

BFRomeos, Nice airmail page. Not all those are easy to find decently centered as you know.
