Davo Preserve the Polar Region Album
Iceland Post is advertising a new Davo album for collectors of the "Preserve the Polar Region" series of stamps. I don't yet see in on the Davo website. The album is full of supplemental information about the polar regions as well as the stamps from the series and counties that produce them. But only for 27 issuing countries. I can't find any information about it on the Davo site but Iceland Post has a pdf brochure online with some photos. It's a nice album but at what a cost - you can order from Iceland Post for 24185 ISK. A bit too high for me.

I think it has 25 country information and stamps...
Yes, it has information and stamps from 25 countries. I did eventually purchase this album: http://stamp-stuff.blogspot.ca/2010/03/davo-preserve-polar-regions-and.html
I am still wondering how come the PDF article on Hungary postal site says this album has 30 countries stamps... and even on canada postal site they claim it as 30 countries stamps and are selling it... so dont know which 5 countries stamps are missing.
Nor any information on DAVO site too :(

Some of those initial countries who wanted to participate may not have been ready to provide stamps when the album was produced. Or maybe some had to be eliminated to cut costs or meet some other goal or target.
In the album I have, the 25 countries included are:
Andorra
Australia
Azerbaijan
Aland
Belgium
Bulgaria
Canada
Czech Republic
Chile
France
