<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 136920, member: 4552"]Asking that kind of question is like saying which car is better. Or which brand of toothpaste, mouth wash, hair spray, toe nail clipper is best. Every one has a different one based on something or other. </p><p>For me I use the Whitman Classic Albums. Not because they are the best but once I started with them, I want them all to look the same. I've had one Littleton album and didn't like the way the pages turned. To me I just don't like the Dansco color. Poor choice of album color for Coppper colored coins. </p><p>Not sure if true but I've heard that Whitman was once manufactured and put together in Wisconsin. However, as with almost everything else today they are now made in China and put together here. Dansco on the other hand is all American. Here in the Mid West most coins stores carry Whitman. At coin shows all you see is Dansco. I've heard that in the far West all you see is Dansco. I've never even seen a Intercept Shield Album anywhere and I've been a coin collector for well over 60 years. Never seen extra pages for Dansco or Littleton. I see extra pages for Whitman everywhere and also sheets with rub off gold numbers and letters so you can add your own information to the albums.</p><p>I've had a lot of trouble with add on pages with Whitman because of the slots being to small, front of page coming off on the corners, holes for adding to albums not in the exact spot they should be, color not exactly matching the rest of the album. Someone in China is saying "got you with that one America" </p><p>Back to your question. I still like the looks of the Whitman Classic Albums.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
