Faröe Islands is a North Atlantic archipelago located north of Scotland roughly halfway between Norway and Iceland. Currently an autonomous territory of Denmark, like Greenland except much smaller -- talk about extreme island ownership! In reality, we all know it's part of the Danish master plan of encircling the British Isles.
A quick-bit: roughly 1400 sq km (~540 sq mi) with a population of 50K+. It's bigger and more populous than I had expected. I guess I had visions of Lundy dancing in my mind. Compare to Falkland Islands (4700 sq mi, <4K population) in the South Atlantic. So it is rather similar in size/population to Åland (610 sq mi, 30K+ population).
Many years ago, in a large boxlot of Scandanavian albums, I had acquired a smattering of Lighthouse hingeless pages (no binder) for Faroe Island covering the mid-1970's through early 1980's. Turns out there were 2 sets of pages, so I've used one for mint and the other for used.
Recently I acquired a medium sized lot of Faröe Islands to fill in spaces. The album page range is very small (<10 years), so my "collection" is a hodge podge of Lighthouse, Scott Specialty, Steiner...), all with no binder. Consistent with cheapskate methodology.
