A lovely set of five Cuban stamp albums - some come with dark green plastic covers with a map of the island, and a title in bold gilt capital letters. Lettered in gilt to spines. Others come with red plastic covers with a 'marbling' effect. Some albums feature a title page, important dates in Cuban history, and pages containing 'a brief history of Cuba', plus a page devoted to the symbolism of the Cuban Flag, and the Cuban Coat-of Arms. The stamp pages are well presented with black double line borders, and stamps are identified either individually, or as pairs, or as sets as is appropriate. A superb collection.
