The Newa (Nederlandse Wapens, Dutch arms) series were issued around 1948. They were used on cigars, but were also sold in small packages. They could be collected in special albums. Click here:[[File:Newa-folder.pdf]] for a small promotion leaflet of the bonds (in Dutch). The aim was educational; to increase the knowledge of topography and history for primary school children. For this also a special song was issued with the bonds, see below.
The Newa (Nederlandse Wapens, Dutch arms) series were issued in January 1947. They were probably used on cigars, but were mainly sold in small packages. These could be collected in special albums. Click here:[[File:Newa-folder.pdf]] for a small promotion leaflet of the bands (in Dutch). The aim was educational; to increase the knowledge of topography and history for primary school children. For this also a special song was issued with the bands, see below. The album was also offered to Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands in 1947, see articles below.

==Albums and bonds==
==Albums and bands==
The idea was to issue bonds for all arms ever registered in the country; but after approx. 1 year the programme stopped. Albums for two provinces were issued; Zuid Holland and Noord Holland, neither are fully issued. The series for nearly all other provinces remained incomplete and no albums were issued. The albums were reprinted at least once, as there are two different albums for both Zuid- and Noord-Holland. The type 2 albums are slightly larger and the position of the bonds in the albums is different. In the type 1 albums the shape of the bonds is outlined, in the type 2 albums there is only a small horizontal line to glue the bonds.

The bonds were issued by the Verkoop-centrale &quot;Steeds Bereid&quot; in Leiden. I have no further information about this company, except that is was re-established in 1944 and originally dealt with scrap metal. The albums were printed at Reiman Jr. in Amsterdam (type 1) and De Sleutelstad in Leiden (type 2).

The bonds were issued in four main types; the small type for arms consisting only of a shield, the medium type for arms with crowns and the large type for arms with supporters. The small type has been issued either with a single colour or bicoloured. The small types have also been reprinted with lighter paper. The larger types have not been reprinted as far as I know.

There are many (slight) misprints known of the bonds in all provinces. Some more extreme are shown below:

Company info

The Newa (Nederlandse Wapens, Dutch arms) series were issued in January 1947. They were probably used on cigars, but were mainly sold in small packages. These could be collected in special albums. Click here:File:Newa-folder.pdf for a small promotion leaflet of the bands (in Dutch). The aim was educational; to increase the knowledge of topography and history for primary school children. For this also a special song was issued with the bands, see below. The album was also offered to Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands in 1947, see articles below.

Albums and bands

The idea was to issue bands for all arms ever registered in the country; but after within the year the programme stopped. Albums for two provinces were issued; Zuid Holland and Noord Holland, neither are fully issued. The series for nearly all other provinces remained incomplete and no albums were issued. The albums were reprinted at least once, as there are two different albums for both Zuid- and Noord-Holland. The type 2 albums are slightly larger and the position of the bands in the albums is different. In the type 1 albums the shape of the bands is outlined, in the type 2 albums there is only a small horizontal line to glue the bands.

The bands were issued by the Verkoop-centrale "Steeds Bereid" in Leiden. The albums were printed at Reiman Jr. in Amsterdam (type 1) and De Sleutelstad in Leiden (type 2).

The bands were issued in four main types; the small type for arms consisting only of a shield, the medium type for arms with crowns and the large type for arms with supporters. The small type has been issued either with a single colour or bicoloured. The small types have also been reprinted with lighter paper. The larger types have not been reprinted as far as I know.
