I am having difficulty finding appropriate housing for my full-tabbed Israel stamps. Any suggestions, please?

Thanks in advance.

Sperati.

Nearly every publisher of stamp albums provides pages for Israel tabs. Some for both tabs and singles- White Ace comes to mind.

I really like the DAVO album, available from Palo albums.

Some free ones here - probably a Steiner knock-off

Actually as far as I am aware he uses AlbumEasy for creating his pages.

Thank you, everyone, for your helpful responses.

However, I did not express myself clearly enough in outlining my predicament. My problem is not with album pages, of which I have an adequate supply, but with the stamp mounts which one attaches to the pages.

Some full-tabbed stamps are 70+mm tall, whereas the tallest mounts I have so far been able to procure only reach to 55mm. So I'm looking for some taller mounts.

Any suggestions of alternative sources would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Sperati.

Showguard mounts come in large strips that you cut down to size.

If I may suggest, you may find it easier to simply reverse the measurements and affix that size mount vertically instead of horizontally. In other words, if you are using top-loading mounts, measure/cut/affix the mount so it is side-loading; if you are using split-back mounts, measure/cut/affix the mount so the split is vertical instead of horizontal. Those who collect booklets/panes have the same problem -- it's not unusual for me to see tall vertical booklets/panes using a mount affixed so the split-back is vertical.

Use Vario pages or stockbooks and you won't have to worry about mounts.

Thanks again, everyone.

A little lateral thinking might have helped me to see an obvious answer to my problem in side-loading a top-and-bottom sealed strip.

Old dogs really can learn new tricks! And now to get on with the backlog of un-filed stamps.

Very much appreciate all your helpful suggestions.

Regards,

Sperati.

The only time you'll ever notice is when you first mount the stamp, or if you remove the stamp. Most people don't even notice when just perusing the collection.

If you use open-top mounts in sideways orientation, you will have to be a little careful about stamps shifting. In these cases, the split-back mounts offer a better "grip" on the stamp.

Thank you, khj. Having made a couple of trial forays into the sideways orientation, I see your point about the possibility of stamps shifting. I'd hate to lose any of them, especially the rarer ones. Will see if I can get hold of some of the split-back mounts.

Thanks again. Do appreciate your help!

Regards,

Sperati.
