I'm trying to find a list of US Stamp albums that have descriptions in them. SO far I have:

1. Scott Minuteman
2. Minkus All-American
3. White-Ace
4. Mystic Heirloom

Since Amos owns Scott and Minkus, I'd like to know if the two albums share the same stamp descriptions. Does anyone know?

Also, am I missing any albums that have descriptions?

Don't forget the Harris Liberty Album.

Laurie, I was unaware of the Chris Diaz offerings. From a graphics POV, they look quite nice! Thanks for the tip.

His albums seems a little skimpy on the descriptions. Some stamps have descriptions, others do not.

I think Scott Minuteman, Minkus All-American, and Liberty Harris all have different descriptions. You can see this finding one of the ebay auctions which lists all of the pages,

Comparing descriptions of SC #1542, 10c 1974 Kentucky Bicenntenial,

Minkus - 333766146801 - "Settlers Reaching Fort Harrod -- Saluted the 200th anniversary of the first Kentucky Settlement"

Scott - 402624563087 - "First Kentucky Settlement -- The first English settlement west of the Allegheny Mountains was founded in 1774 James Harrod. Erected in Bluegrass region, Fort Harrod, encompassing Harrodsburg, grew rapidly and within 18 years Kentucky was admitted to the Union as the 15th state"

Harris - 203198129724 - "Fort Harrod -- Commemorates 200th anniversary of first English settlement west of the Alleghenies"

I would expect Harris to have different descriptions. And in 1974 Amos didn't own Scott or Minkus. I wonder if the 2019 and 2020 supplements have the same descriptions for both Minuteman and Minkus.

@apastuszak, looks like you're right. For 2018 supplements, Minkus and Scott descriptions are the same.

That makes sense. The same company prints both supplements. Why do twice the work if you don't have to?
