I bought this photo album because I needed something to put non-standard size photos in. This album is great for that, there are no dividers in the sheets to separate photos, so any photo smaller than 8" x 8" will fit in the album. The plastic pockets that hold the photos are made of good quality plastic, and the sleeves have black paper inserts that you can use to mount your photos on. If you want to take this approach, you will need to buy photo corners. As one other reviewer commented, it does not look like the photo. I am perplexed by the other reviewers who thought it was beautiful. The red is brighter than the classy, toned down version you see in the photo. The leather is very hard and has veins added to it to make it look weathered (it really looks like fake leather), the design stamped into the cover is just lost in this veining. The cover does not wrap around the spine of the book, but rather the front and back covers are separate pieces and the back is left open. Definitely not worth the price.

I PURCHASED THIS ALBUM WITH A PARTICULAR USE IN MIND AND AM VERY PLEASED. THE BOOK CONTAINS 20 8X8 INCH BLACK PAGES WHICH LOOKS GREAT WITH BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOS. YOU MAY WANT TO PURCHASE THE BLACK PHOTO CORNERS TO MOUNT YOUR PHOTOS AS THERE ARE NO DIVIDERS ON THE PAGES BUT THIS IS GOOD IF YOU HAVE PHOTOS OF DIFFERENT SIZES THAT YOU WANT TO DISPLAY. THE COVER OF THE BOOK DOES HAVE A DIFFERENT DESIGN THAN WHAT IS SHOWN AND THE LEATHER IS A BIT ON THE RED SIDE, BUT TO ME THE COLOR IS FINE. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT AND NICER THAN THE AVERAGE PHOTO ALBUM, THIS WOULD BE IT.

Very nice album, I will have to chose some very special photographs to insert. :)

This is classier looking than the trendy styles although I have to admit it doesn't look like the pictures. Fits in nicely on the bookshelf.
