The Leuchtturm Illustrated Album Pages Australia are available with SF mounts:

The Leuchtturm Illustrated Album Pages Australia (size 270 x 297 mm/13-hole system) are printed on non-ageing wood and acid-free card (170  g/m 2 ) in high-resolution black and white offset print. Colour printing is consciously  avoided. This allows you to immediately spot the missing stamps in your collection.

SF protective covers in sizes which match the stamps, made from clear, anti-glare polystyrene film, free from chemical softener are glued to the card of the  albums. The protective covers hold the stamps in place and prevent sticking. They also protect your collection from dust and moisture.

Many of the Leuchtturm illustrated album pages are also available without SF protective covers in a “regular” version.

The individual characteristics of similar stamps which vary in e.g. colour, perforation or printing process are noted on the respective album sheets. This only applies to stamps with Michel (major) numbers and includes the year where required. At all times we aim for a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing presentation.

WHY COLLECT STAMPS OF AUSTRALIA ?

Australia entered the philatelic stage in 1913 with the release of the iconic Kangaroo and Map series. Instantly recognizable worldwide, this design remains one of the most celebrated stamps in history and set the tone for over a century of unique and beautiful issues.

Diverse Themes and Designs

Australian stamps capture the essence of the nation:

• Wildlife: Kangaroos, koalas, exotic birds, and marine life.
• Landscapes: The Great Barrier Reef, Uluru, and sweeping outback vistas.
• Culture and History: Aboriginal art, sporting achievements, and royal portraits.
• Innovation: Modern commemoratives and vibrant thematic issues.

This variety ensures there is always something new and engaging for collectors.

Two Eras of Collecting

The shift from pre-decimal currency (pounds, shillings, and pence) to the decimal system in 1966 offers collectors two distinct paths. Some focus on the challenge of early watermarks, perforation differences, and errors in the pre-decimal period, while others enjoy building modern thematic collections in the decimal era.

Worldwide Appeal

Australian stamps are well-documented in major catalogues and remain popular among collectors across the globe. Affordable modern issues make the hobby accessible, while rarities—such as varieties of early Kangaroos or classic commemoratives—provide opportunities for seasoned philatelists.
