Recently I was given a two volume Album produced by a firm called K-Line (as near as I can tell, now defunct) which had Christmas stamps from each country going back to the Canada issue in 1898 and running through 1972. I believe K-Line also produced specialty albums for other areas like Scouting as well.
They perhaps produced pages after 1972 that but that is when this particular album ends.
I'm thinking this might be a fun project to try and continue and I've had some good luck making my own pages with Album Easy but I'm trying to figure out how I'll build the inventory of Christmas stamps. Do you just have to dig through the global catalog for each year? Maybe that's what all topical collectors do?
Don had a thread here for Christmas seals with some beautiful pages that he did up and one of the responses mentions a catalog that keeps track of the Christmas seal issues:
https://goscf.com/t/62103So I wondered if there is such a thing for Christmas stamps or will I have to dig through the whole global catalog year by year to fish out each year's Christmas stamps for the years after 1972 that I want to create?
I did look through the Album Easy downloads to see if maybe someone else has worked up something similar and didn't see anything.
