About this piece
Two vintage Soviet stamp albums with several hundred used USSR and world stamps, 1950s–1980s: sport, space, animals, art. Free shipping.
From the seller's notes
This lot is two vintage stamp albums (stockbooks) from a private Soviet-era collection, sold together: a large stockbook with a brown cover hand-marked "Марки" (Stamps) and a small green hardcover stockbook with a gold seagull and the word "Марки" on the cover. Together they hold several hundred stamps, mostly cancelled (used) postage stamps of the USSR from the 1950s to the 1980s, plus stamps of other countries.

Condition
Both albums are used and show their age. The large album's spine is split and frayed at the bottom, the cover has the handwritten word "Марки", and several glassine interleaving sheets are wrinkled and some are torn. Many pages still have empty strips. The small album has light wear and a few marks on the cover. Please look at all photos carefully, they are part of the description.
About This Piece

It is a good starting point for a beginning collector, a fun lot for sorting by topic, or a nostalgic gift for someone who grew up in the USSR or Eastern Europe. No rare or valuable stamps are claimed; it is sold as a collection.
