There are a lot of these "joint issues". I incorporated them into my album by adding them in where they go.
I think Iceland issued a very similar set.
Seanpashby do you make your own pages? My album is just USA so the other one doesn't have a spot in it for it.
I have a collection of joint issues from Canada Now I`m hoping to organize a similar collection for the USA...I wonder if this was the official joint issue for 1992 My reference mentions Italy/Portugal and Spain as well no mention of Iceland
The souvenir sheets, showing the original US Columbian issue ware jointly issued by the four countries: USA, Italy, Portugal and Spain.
Many may not know, but in 1893 Venezuela issued a stamp in the same format of the USA Columbian issue (Scott #136). It was issued at the same exhibition.
Carabop, I started with an entire set of US album pages I found free online. They were in jpeg format so it was easy to open in paint and change anything. I changed pages and created new pages to include all the modern US varieties (wet/dry, hole sizes, dull/shiny gum, tagged/untagged. etc..). I also added all the joint issues up to 1992, including all the Columbus reprints. I also eliminated the spots for the ridiculously rare stamps that I will never have to get rid of those annoying holes.

Thank you seanpashby, the list is very helpful.
A recent web page of mine, William Saroyan posts a letter, is based in part on the 1991 joint issue of the Soviet Union and the U.S. joint issue.
The web page includes an interesting comment about the differences between the two stamps.
I purchased the cover featured on the web page from Roy Lingen several years ago.

Great write-up, Bob. I haven't read any Saroyan, yet, but I plan on remedying that, soon.

I was looking thru some of my stamps to catalog them and I came across this interesting pair. I remember when I got them I needed the USA block but I wasn't sure what to do with the other block. I still don't but I didn't realize they were so much alike. Now I almost don't want to put the USA block in my album then the mate would have no mate.
