Stanley Gibbons Albums

I recently purchased a lot of 15 Stanley Gibbons world wide albums. They are Swiftsure and Abbey.
This is my first go around with SG and all the stamps seem to be haphazardly mounted in order to fill up the pages. Currently working on Egypt and there are stamps from the 50s, 60s and 80s all on the page I'm working on right now.
I'm used to nothing but Scott and that mounting process by Scott number. Is this the way all SG albums are mounted?
As an aside the PO had a unique way of mounting the stamp by folding the hinge over on itself thereby making it almost impossible to slip tongs under it to remove it. There are a lot of mint and I really do not want to soak them.

Thus has nothing to do with Gibbons albums. These aren't printed albums with particulatpr spaces for individual stamps, as far as I know, so the collector will have stuck in the stamps as he saw fit, doubtless not wishing to leave large gaps for things he was unlikely to find. People all over the world do this, and always have.

You say stamps in these Stanley Gibbons albums are mounted "haphazardly" and that the page you're working on has stamps "from the 50s, 60s and 80s all on the page" which makes it seem that SG albums are designed for haphazard mounting of stamps. But these are blank albums in which collectors can put stamps anywhere they want. The albums are not designed to be used in any particular way. It's up to the collector, not Stanley Gibbons.

Asking "Is this the way all SG albums are mounted?" suggests you think collectors are supposed to mount stamps this way. That is a pretty odd question. No, this is not the way SG albums work. All blank page albums could work that way if the owner wanted to do that, but this has nothing to do with Stanley Gibbons. What am I missing here?

As for the way the collector hinged the stamps into the album, I've come across a lot of unusual methods of doing that, so I'd say some people are more creatively weird than other people. And, yes, it can be annoying. Hence the invention of the scalpel, box cutter, and pen knife which I employ quite frequently for this purpose. When a simple method of removing hinge marks is invented, I'll probably also use that.

The SG 'One Country' Luxe albums are re-branded DAVO albums. They mount stamps in order of date of issue. However, sometimes a stamp from, e.g. August may be found before e.g. February to prevent having a page with one stamp.

Stamps that did not have general use (to pay/postage dues - not prepaying carriage, specific airmails - if only valid on airmail -, officials - not available for public use -) are moved to the back, as can be souvenir sheets.

Thanks for the clarifications guys. As this was the only time I had seen SG branded albums I had not considered they were blank pages but there are quadrilled - DUH on me.
