Bought those 2 in a half price book store today. They look like dansco and have the exact same designs as dansco does, but it says Littleton on the side of the co we and on the inside of the back cover.

I have never seen albums like this but I'm not surprised to see them. I know that there is a custom engraving service avaliable for the dansco albums. It looks like there was a partnership between Dansco and Littleton at one time, I wonder how old these albums are. I know that Littleton has their own albums now and they are green. I don't know anything else about them. I tend to ignore anything that Littleton coin company does.

The cover lettering is the same font that Dansco uses, so I agree they were probably made by Dansco with Littleton's name on the spine and title page.

Nice.

Now, of course, you have yourself a serious project... we'll want to see them filled!!

At one time Littleton apparently had Dansco do the whole series for them, including a Dansco 7070 with the Littleton name on it. If you watch for it, you can get a used 7070 much cheaper by buying the Littleton one, and on the shelf it looks just like the Dansco.

So, you're selling them then?

I'll keep them for now just in case I come along one of the halves.

Nice find.

I cannot remember at the moment, but someone else posted a custom Dansco like these before. I will see if I can find the post.
