A FDC album filled with almost all the SAA Covers, including no’s 5-55 and 101-106. In total almost 100 covers, a lot of them with duplicates. The only covers missing are no’s 1 – 4 and the binder pack (no’s 56-100) issued at the same time in 1994!
The album itself is in a Very Good Condition with 20 x 2 division pages (space for 80 covers) and 1 single partition page (for 2 bigger covers).

Overall very good condition, no rust intrusion noted, a few of the covers may have some minor blemishes, selling as is. Have a look at the photos of some of the items.
The Recommended Retail Price of these covers alone (according to Danie van Zyl’s “Flight & Fight” Catalogue), excluding the album itself and some of the unlisted signed covers is over R550!
Postage on these larger items will be R30 for the first kg and R5 for each additional kg or part thereof. Items can be combined to save on postage. For this album postage will be R40 (over 2 kg).
