    This was the first Brooke Bond I ever bought. Some of them are more rare than others. All unused and excellent condition. I am very particular in my grading, so when I say excellent, I mean Excellent...
    I bought these albums on August 10th, 2015, and that is when I decided to collect them and try for a fairly complete collection.

    These are all Canadian and made in Canada for the entire North American market. I was lucky, these came with the protectors, so it was a good buy and made me a more discerning buyer.

    In all there are 17 different North American Albums,
    In the British Series there are over 50 different, which I now have also, but still counting. They come under the category of trade card albums, I am still finding new ones. I saw a Rhodesian album a few weeks ago and it went over 100 dollars, closer to 200 if I remember right.

      Its always amazes when someone finds paper ephemera such as
      yours, and is in excellent condition. You would think it was looked at and shown
      to others often over the years, and not be in in that condition!!

      Yes, I remember them well from when we were kids and the albums and cards were seemingly lost. Now I can get some real deals and become a real collector of this paper ephemera. one of my sisters forgot all about them.
