The second thematic album entitled "Maltese Coastline" is being issued by Maltapost’s Philatelic Bureau.

The album takes a look at the Maltese coastline through a number of stamp sets issued since the year 2000, and including the Frama labels issued in 2002.

The Maltese Coastline album includes eight issues with cancelled stamps, together with a number of 16-stamp sheetlets, covering such diverse topics as seahorses, seashells, castles and towers, lighthouses, sailing and military architecture.

Besides a general essay, the text also includes full annotations of all the stamps in the album.

The thematic album, which has been designed by 26th Frame, is aimed at visitors to the Maltese Islands, philatelists and collectors of melitensia.

The album will be available from all Maltapost retail outlets and from the Philatelic Bureau from Thursday, 29 March. It is being offered at Lm4.
