I went through my Scott album and numbered the pages and added the missing stamps. My pages go from beginning to 1992. Here is what I found, I had to add 9 pages from 1860 to 1936. Pages were complete 1937 to 1961. Then I had to add 11 pages from 1961 to 1968. I added 3 airmail pages, 2 pages to postal tax stamps,1 postage due, 1 semi-postal and 7 official pages for a total of 34 pages. It has taken me about 4 days to complete.
Is it worth all the effort to add the pages for all the stamps? I am beginning to wonder if it is. The pages I make take a lot of time but look great. I am a former draftsman so I make good looking pages.
This seems about standard for Scott pages, missing a lot from 1961-68. I tried doing Paraguay but gave up after making 6 pages in this area. Then I looked ahead a bit and finished numbering what was there. There was about 1500 stamps missing, so I moved on to next country.

I no longer use Scott Internationals for this very reason. I'm slowly moving my stamps out of them.

Unless you have the Scott Big Browns, you will eventually run into a LOT of stamps that don't have spaces in the Scott International -- including some very common stamps!

As I mentioned in the other thread, many collectors simply use quadrilled pages for stamps with no dedicated spaces in the album.
