Variations in the stamps can be a different style of the drawing, these are listed in the catalogue file. Here only true heraldic variations are shown. There are 33 true variations known for the French albums, plus two variations in the name of the village on the stamps.
Variations in the texts are minor, as compared to for example the German, Swiss, Belgian and Dutch albums. These are listed below the table of variations in the stamps

Besides the variations above is other 'variation' :
Brumath
{|align="center"
|[[File:brumath.hagfr.jpg|150 px]]
|[[File:brumath2.hagfr.jpg|150 px]]
|}
This is not a real variation. The official description mentions an arm coming from the (heraldic) left part of the shield holding a banner with a star. Both images are in accordance with the blason and thus technically identical.
There are also two variations in the name

===Variations in the texts===
Most variations are in the second album between the first edition (loose sheets) and the second edition (bound volume). Only the number of inhabitants of Paris differs in the first album. All variations are rather minor.
For both the first two albums the sequence of arms-description is reversed as compared to the bound volumes. On the sheets the omages are on the front, the description on the reverse side of the page. In the bound volume the description is on the reverse of the previous page.
'''Album I '''<br>
'''Paris''' : number of inhabitants 7.000.000 (sheets) vs 2.906.470 (bound volume). This is the number mentioned in the description of the region. For the description of the arms of Paris, both give the 2,9 million number.
'''Album II :<br>
*'''Strasbourg''' (Alsace), in the descripion of the region the number of inhabitants is 130.000 (sheets) or 181.465 (bound), but in the description of the arms the numbers are 174.500 and 181.465.
*'''Sarre-Union'''. The text mentiones Sarre-Union, the image Saar-Union. This is also the case in album VI where the arms are shown again. The image in album II also mentions the regio as Lorraine instead of Alsace.
*'''Bourgogne''', the description of the region mentions on the loose sheet that 10 river run through the region, with La Sa&ocirc;ne mentioned twice. In the bound album this has been corrected.
*'''Beaune''' (Bourgogne, C&ocirc;te-d'Or, 40). The text in the loos sheet refers to 'image 89', the bound volume simply mentions 'the arms'.
*'''Grenoble''' (Dauphin&eacute;), in the descripion of the region the number of inhabitants is 64.000 (sheets) or 90.858 (bound), but in the description of the arms the number is 90.858 in both cases.
*'''Besan&ccedil;on''' ( Franche Comt&eacute;), in the descripion of the region the number of inhabitants is 57.556 (sheets) or 60.637 (bound), but in the description of the arms the number is 60.637 in both cases.
*'''Nancy''' (Lorraine), in the descripion of the region the number of inhabitants is 60.306 (sheets) or 120.518 (bound), but in the description of the arms the number is 120.518 in both cases.
*'''Verdun''' (Meuse) : there is a small change in the text :
**sheets :Ville tr&egrave;s fortifi&eacute;e, se d&eacute;fendant courageusement &agrave; la guerre 1914-1918.
**bound : Ville tr&egrave;s fortifi&eacute;e, qui se d&eacute;fendit courageusement pendant la guerre 1914-1918.
*'''&Eacute;pinal''' (Vosges), the sheets mention &quot;de la Gaule Belge&quot;, the bound volume only &quot;la Gaule&quot;.
*'''Lyon''' (Lyonnais), in the descripion of the region the number of inhabitants is 466.767 (sheets) or 570.840 (bound), but in the description of the arms the number is 570.840 in both cases.
*'''Chamb&eacute;ry''' (Savoie), in the descripion of the region the number of inhabitants is 21.700 (sheets) or 25.407 (bound), but in the description of the arms the number is 25.407 in both cases.
