Default Mystic stamp company supplements??

Hello,
I have an unusual situation and maybe someone more experienced in stamp
albums can help. My aunt passed away a couple of years ago and in her
belongings I found some supplements for a US stamp album. They are two
holed, but published by Mystic Stamp Co. I telephoned them and found out
that all their binders are three-ringed, but the lady said that Mystic made
supplements for other companies stamp binders, but wasn't sure who these
would be for. I have a Statesman album for world stamps (1991) but the
mounts are a little bit narrower than the holes on these supplements. The
supplements are just a quarter inch or so further apart. What my question
is, is does anyone have any idea what type of binder these were made for? I
would like to find one for them without having to repunch the holes. As I
said the holes are so close that repunching them would just about be
punching them on the edges of the present holes and wouldn't be very durable
when repunched. Anyway, if anyone knows of anything that might help please
let me know. Thanks.
Brian Oakley

Mystic sells an album binder called Harris Worldwide (2 post). Since they also sell supplements
(their own) for Harris Statesman, I would suspect this binder will work for you. I think they offer
a money back guarantee.

Thanks but that wont work. I already have the Statesman (Harris) binder and
the posts are too close to accomodate the holes in the supplements. Thats
the reason for my posting this message. Im trying to find a binder that
fits, but Harris Statesman doesnt.
Thanks Anyway,

I repunched an entire Scott 2 hole album into 3 holes. Did wonders for my
biceps and makes the pages and albums much easier to manage than the 2 post
jobs. Probably didn't do much for the resale value of the pages but what's
a second hand album worth anyway.

I would call Subway Stamps. I would measure the spacing between the posts and they may be able to
find a binder that fits.
