Stockbook - Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages and Disadvantages

• As more stamps are acquired they can easily be rearranged.
• Large gaps need not exist, as may happen with a stamp album that has fixed spaces for each particular stamp.
• There is no space for writing notes - some collectors do their write-up on a piece of paper and insert it behind a stamp or in an adjacent row.
• Stamps are not affixed so they can fall out, or become dislodged, if dropped or bumped hard.
• Stockbooks are less suitable for display since the stamps can fall out or be mishandled.
