Thanks for showing them renden ... very cool, great examples. I still have a soft spot for the Scott Canada album I used back in the 1970's ... so, I've kept it. The only thing I've updated over the years are the mounts. As I get better stamps or when the hinge come loose, I replace them with clear hingeless ones. I'm still working, always will be I suppose, on the pre-1953 stamps. They're the ones I love. After 1953, I have an almost complete set to the end of last year (getting the annual packs for the last 40 years has helped - smile). My Canada Album is the Scott 1975 (Specialty Series) and has been updated over the years with pages up to 2000. The 2000 to 2024 stamps are in stockbooks. I'll keep doing that as long as I'm around. But, that's just habit. I don't really 'collect' the modern stamps. I do have more modern, custom and more specialzed pages for my other collections, but my goals for Canada were and are the simple ones of my youth. That is, I just want to have a half-decent example of as many classic stamps as I could afford. Otherwise, I tend to focus my energy and budget on my other collections. So, here is my set of the Quebec Tercentenary Issue. When I see a better stamp come up at a show (if it's a reall deal) I replace my current version. ![](https://i.ibb.co/bH2KtQ3/IMG-0422.jpg)

Great collection! So hard to find good centering on this issue. I know the Jubilee issue has better centering, did the printer change? Great issue though, and I am with Hugh, I continue to upgrade this issue in the my collection.
