Do you have a faint memory of these? I recall we used to have these even in India, in those days. Each book would have a space for the Brooke Bond card, and, a nice description of the related person/animal/thing.
rooke Bond, originally a tea company, distributed collectible picture cards in their tea products starting in the 1950s. These albums were created to house the cards and educate collectors about various topics.
These albums were both educational and collectible, combining colorful illustrations with informative descriptions. They were especially popular among children and families in the mid-20th century, fostering learning through a fun and engaging hobby.
Now, they are eminently collectible, since Brooke Bond do not bring out these any more.

What joy it must have been, to complete each book, in those days when there were no ebays or amazons.
