The trademark text reads : Karte aus Papier, Pappe odgl. mit perforierten, mit Wappen beklebten oder bedruckten Feldern, um welche herum Reklamen odgl, angeordnet sind. S.

The images could be collected from a large number of small companies in Germany, Austro-Hungarian Empire and Holland (and maybe other countries as well). These companies issued advertising cards, with two images, that could be cut out and placed in the album. According to the cards, one card was issued weekly. With 480 cards that would mean 240 weeks. When they started issuing in 1903, the series could have been completed by 1907. | The images could be collected from a large number of small companies in Germany, Austro-Hungarian Empire and Holland (and maybe other countries as well).

All albums have the same lay-out : a front page, followed by an 8-page index of all arms and then 20 pages to glue or stick the images. All indicate that it is the first album, but the second was never published (see above). | All albums have the same lay-out: a front page, followed by an 8-page index of all arms and then 20 pages to glue or stick the images.

There are no indications to the dates when the different albums were published. As the cards could be collected over a long period of time, the cards inside each album can not be used for dating a specific album. The six albums that I am aware of, can be placed in a logical sequence though, based on name and population figures. | There are no indications to the dates when the different albums were published.

Album 3 has as title Wappen-Sammel-Album and under the title is an empty embossed shield. The cover page is multi-coloured. The index is in green, with a smaller typeface as in albums 1,2,4 and 5. The population figures are identical to album 1 and 2, but there are some small textual differences. For example : the Sandwich Islands are 'als Königr. Hawai gen." (meaning: known as the kingdom of Hawai) in album 1, 'als Königr. Hawai genannt" in album 2 and 4 and 'als Köningreich Hawai genannt" in album 3 and 5. As it has the same name and design as album 4, it is of a later date as the previous 2 albums and thus listed as album 3. | Album 3 has as title Wappen-Sammel-Album and under the title is an empty embossed shield.
