JUNIOR ALBUMS AND OUTFITS (Fast-bound) The majority of collectors probably started with albums such as these. The albums are with fixed pages (i.e. not loose leaf), a squared pattern printed out on the page, and with country headings at the top. Naturally, the larger the album, the more space there will be for each country, although pages are laid out to fit what is considered to be an average mix and balance of numbers for a collector in the UK. (A UK-based collector would expect to have larger numbers of, and therefore need more space for, stamps of the UK, Ireland, Western Europe, the larger Commonwealth countries, and so on. A collector resident in, say, Argentina, would probably gather an entirely different mix of stamps, and would probably find the albums listed here less useful. See also thematic packets of stamps, often popular with new collectors.   Album Price Outfit Price World Stamp Album. A thin card-covered (colour illustrated) album, 64 pages, 170mm x 230mm.
