Ahhhh, the vagaries of chance.  I hadn't particularly been planning on building a Roosevelt album.  Then one day (about 3 years ago) when I was in a local B&M, a person came in and sold an old 1946 - 1964 Whitman Roosevelt album to the shop owner.  After the seller left I asked to see the album.  Given the potential of a quick flip the shop owner offered me a reasonable price.  The album was missing about 15% of the coins.  Of those in the album, a decent percentage of the coins were very attractive, and another chunk were nice enough looking that I decided WTF, and got the album.  I then used that album as the basis of building my own 1946 - 1964 Whitman album.  It's still a work in progress, but it's getting complete enough to start showing some of the date sets.  Here's the 1946 PDS group.  The D is from the "original" album.  The images are by Bob Campbell, and I think he did an excellent job.

Like the "P" and the "S" but the "D" seems to be a victim of acid rain or something.  Roosies are fun to collect.
