The trademark text reads : Karte aus Papier, Pappe odgl. mit perforierten, mit Wappen beklebten oder bedruckten Feldern, um welche herum Reklamen odgl, angeordnet sind. S.

The images could be collected from a large number of small companies in Germany, Austro-Hungarian Empire and Holland (and maybe other countries as well). These companies issued advertising cards, with two images, that could be cut out and placed in the album. According to the cards, one card was issued weekly. With 480 cards that would mean 240 weeks. When they started issuing in 1903, the series could have been completed by 1907.

The album was issued as the first out of a series of two (the second was never issued) and contained the arms of present and former (non-European) countries and European cities. The second album supposedly would contain family arms.
 
At least six different album formats for the first album were issued, see below.
 
The cards were issued initially in Germany, but were also available in other countries. As far as I know, the names of the countries and cities, as well as the album itself were not translated. The cards were introduced for the Dutch market in 1908, as can be seen in the advertisements below.

All albums have the same set-up : a front page, followed by an 8-page index of all arms and then 20 pages to glue or stick the images.  All indicate that it is the first album, but the second was never published (see above).

There are no indications to the dates when the different albums were published. As the cards could be collected over a long period of time, the cards inside each album can not be used for dating a specific album. The five albums that I am aware of, can be placed in a logical sequence though, based on name and population figures.

Album 6 is the latest album that I know of. The cover is identical to album 4. Index is printed in green with a different lay-out and updated population figures as compared to album 5, hence it is the newest album. Some small other textual changes.
