Honestly, the picture tells us nothing. The binders themselves are obviously homemade, in very poor condition, and worthless.
What matters are the stamps inside. Where are those pictures? |

The 4800k blue stamp with portrait of Wilhelm Kress appears to be Scott C11. Scott value (2013 catalog) $3.00 used or unused. |

The binders and pages are by Yvert, rather than being homemade - with a protective paper covering on top. Usually worth leaving material in old albums if you're planning on selling via eBay. |

About what I'd expect given the condition of the binders, but you could find a few small treasures. All in all not a fortune by any means, but perhaps a nice dinner or two, if you find the right buyer(s). |

I would advise against a quick judgement with this album. Many more pics are needed. Where was the original collector of these albums located. I would look at Countries from that region. I would also like to see the US and Canada sections. These are the type of albums that can produce sleepers.  |

I look forward to more images Pancho. Any Latin American countries would be great to see since your Grandfather collected while living there. |

British Guiana, Brazil, and Peru are all good to show—the oldest stamps. And the UK, if present. |

Fun old-style album to see, I concur about more photos :) especially US and UK. Brazil would be interesting and if you are really lucky a Bulls-eye or two :) |
