Sweden: Souvenir Cards, Collector Sheets, Souvenir Folders, Presentation Packs: Souvenir Cards

This section has just been started and is under development; much more exists than has yet been listed here. Sweden has not had a consistent progam of issuing traditional souvenir cards, but there have been items that are generally in that category. Sweden has issued quite a few "souvenir folders" in various formats, mostly during the 1970s-2000s, some of which might be considered to be (or to contain) souvenir cards. Be sure to see the (still in development) souvenir folders web page, as well as the web page for blackprints / colorprints. The listings of full-page-size "collectors sheets" -- the Swedish version of "souvenir pages" -- have been started on the following web pages. In the 1970s-1990s Sweden did regularly issue, for international stamp shows, post-card-sized "stamp show cards" which can also be considered to be a form of souvenir cards. If you are seeking specific items in any of these categories -- or if you are interested in certain stamp issues or topics and would like to know if related items exist from these categories -- please let me know of your interests. Though they are not yet on the website, I have an extensive stock of all the types of items related to these categories.

1972 "Diplom" (award certificate) "souvenir page" for the Most Beautiful Swedish Stamp of 1971. Awarded in May 1972 as a prize for being among those who selected the particular stamp design: The center stamp (crown on blue background) of the 1971 Crown Regalia stamp issue [Scott #899-903, printed by photogravure, but designed by SLANIA]. A strip of five uncanceled stamps is affixed to the certificate. Yellowish laid paper, 210 x 296 mm. My recollection is that only 100 people received this certificate; this is only the second example I have recording seeing or having. [Included are a ca.1950s-1960s color Swedish map and a 1968 folder picturing and describing in Swedish the Stockholm Castle; these were in the package with the "Diplom", but I cannot be sure that they were received as part of the prize.]
