Album
The album Sveriges Riksvapen, Landskaps- och Stadsvapen was probably issued in 1932. It was printed by Karl Lindholm in Stockholm. The earliest references to the album in newspapers date from February 1933.
The author is Friherre Harald Gustav Fleetwood (1879-1960).
Harald Gustav Fleetwood was the State Herald of Sweden from 1931-1965 and author of many heraldic papers. The album contains only the arms of provinces and towns. The stamps were issued in 8 sheets of 18 stamps each, with an additional 5 stamps with advertising.
As far as I know there have been no plans to issue a second album with personal arms as in the Norwegian album.
Like the Danish and Norwegian album, it also contains a chapter on the production of coffee and an introduction to heraldry.
Unlike some other albums, there is no text on the back of the stamps.
