Old-Time  album (1890) with unusual contents - stamp collages etc.

With interestingly arranged ranges of Queen Victorian stamps from Great Britain and the world, including France and Russia. After school, Edward had travelled widely - in Paris during the Franco-Prussian war, St Petersburg and Moscow in 1870 as well as to South Africa. Many of the stamps in the album have been arranged as stamp art mosaics / collages. A most interesting album, condition is poor with loose and detached pages etc..
