I like these old Whitman Type Folders

Probably because they're easier to fill than a 7070! I'm half tempted to fill one or two with some AG-VG examples.

This isn't vintage, copyright 1992, but has the look

1949

1952

    They sure do jog ones memory of long ago.

    Love those!

    Why not do a lower grade but wholesome set????

    I have done three 7070s . . . .but also have LOC, Oberwise, Wayte Raymond, and a few oddballs . . . . each are fun in their own way. I don't fill them all . . . . but maybe some day???

    I bought one Whitman folder for Canadian halves recently and half of the openings were too large for the coins.

    They are great old albums.... A few years ago, I was in a coin shop in Wilmington, NC.... and they had a vast inventory of all different typed of coin albums... had never seen that many - quantity, quality and types - in one location before. Yes, they had a lot of coins as well... ;) It was a nice shop. Will have to go back there the next time I visit my daughter in Jacksonville area. Cheers, RickO

    I like the Wayte Raymond best, I have a couple one lincoln lacking only the 09svdb I'm waiting to find at a reasonable price in vg-f condition and another more incomplete. They are fun and bring back memories from the 50's.
