They were mentioned in another thread, but I'm wondering if anyone has actually seen any of the hingeless albums published by MoM Albums (http://momalbums.com/) out of Germany?

If so, can you remark to quality of the pages and binders? Weight? How the hinges are - split back or top? Etc.?

I've posted elsewhere and am intrigued that I can't find anyone who has seen these albums though the company claims to have been around since the late 50s.

Also, a week ago I emailed them with no response yet.

Their price points - even with overseas shipping - is pretty nice for hingeless, so I'm understandably curious.

The web site clearly shows the mounts are split back in design.

My guess is that these pages would be rather plain, similar in design and quality to Lighthouse or Davo. They would not be like White Ace in design.

I imagine that the reason they are not widely known is that they are limited to a small area of collecting interest... only 16 Middle East countries.

As far as the price appearing attractive, I would want to know what the coverage is. Do they cover varieties, or just the simplified issues?

The illustration does show split back, but I'd rather see a photo. Or better, see it in person. Sometimes things change (I'm not a devote of split-back or the open top variety, just curious).

I have the same questions about coverage as you.
