Albums  (Symbols & Figurines)

In pre computer era these albums were in use by correspondence players for storing positions. The plug in pieces can exist of equally formed plates with symbols or figurines formed according their meaning. The Rajah Serieskak is most likely Danish. Some say it is German and I thought that a long time, but after seen a wooden chess set called "Rajah-Skak" from Denmark, I assume the albums are originally from Denmark.
