I am looking for a hingeless album for my Canada and Provinces collection that covers the 1851 to 1951/1970 period. I know Lighthouse includes the Provinces in its version. What about Davo, Lindner, or Schaubek -- do they include the Provinces for this time period?
Thanks.
Dennis

Lighthouse sells pages for BNA provinces separate from the Canada album, but you can frequently find used albums on ebay in which a previous owner combined BNA with Canada. I can't speak from experience on the other manufacturers, but my guess is if it's a hingeless album, BNA will be sold separately.

Stanley Gibbons and Davo did not include Canadian provinces with their Canada pages last time I looked. (They do not include Australian States in their Australia pages either - bangs head on wall). Minkus old British North America Album pages do cover them, as do the old Harris pages. Not sure on the current offerings. Not terribly keen on those pages with slots punched out of them - seems like building in a weakness to me. Palo maybe, but then you might as well use Steiner pages and save some huckleberries.

I have Schaubek Canada albums and they do not include provinces. That said their 'brilliant' albums are nice. You can also purchase blank country sheets and build your own pages with mounting strips. Someone online sells pre-designed stamp albums; they are not expensive and come in PDF format. I have used these pre designed album pages (edited to remove frame and anything else unwanted) printed on blank Schaubek pages to create 'missing' pages for my collection. For example Schaubek Great Britain albums do not have pages for the East African Forces—China—Morocco stamps, so I made my own. You need a printer that can print on 11" x 11.5" paper.

The only other hingeless option I know of are Palo premium pages, but you would have to purchase the Canada and Provinces pages separately.

I use Schaubek. Below are a few threads with some of my successes and frustrations understanding the Schaubek notations.

I am biased to Lighthouse hingeless for my provinces. What I like about them besides the high quality of the paper is that each stamp has a plastic front and a plastic back that protects it. Its like a little snuggle pocket that the stamps resides safely in. Its open to the top and sides but firmly fixed at the bottom--so its securely held in. I like the archival nature of protecting the back and the front of the stamp safely--while allowing very clear viewing.

I have one set for my Newfoundland mint collection, and another set for my Newfoundland used collection.

They sell Provinces separately from Canada.
