## What is the Semikolon Classic Photo Album Medium?

**It is a glue-in photo album with a bookbinding-linen cover and 80 cream pages of photo card.** Semikolon, the German stationery brand that belongs to the family-owned Leuchtturm Group (see our [Leuchtturm1917 history](https://stationerytimes.com/stories/leuchtturm1917-history/)), says the album is made by hand in its own manufactory and belongs to its Heritage Line. We read its German and English pages on November 1, 2026.

Photos are glued in, and the pages invite handwritten notes and small keepsakes, per Semikolon. Fine glassine paper between the pages protects the prints.

## What are the size, weight and page specs?

**The album is 21.6 × 25.5 cm, each page 20.5 × 24.5 cm, and it weighs 0.815 kg.**

## How many photos does it hold?

**Semikolon says about 160 photos of 10 × 15 cm.** Two prints per page across 80 pages gives that number. The listing adds that the real capacity depends on the photo format and how you arrange them, so it is a guide, not a guarantee.

Semikolon's Classic Event album has 60 pages for about 60 photos of 13 × 18 cm at 24 × 23 cm. Its 200 Pockets Album has 100 pages with two pockets each, for 200 photos of 10 × 15 cm, at 23 × 22.5 cm.

## What do photo corners do to the thickness?

**They add bulk, and Semikolon says so.** Its English page warns that using photo corners can significantly increase the volume of the album and advises thinking about the photo count when designing it. Semikolon sells photo corners in packs of 252 at €10.95 (about US$12), in black, gold, chamois, silver and kraft. If you plan to use them, expect a bulkier book than the 80 pages suggest.


## Is it archival?

**Semikolon's English page says it is acid-free.** The page names the linen cover, Efalin paper, card stock and glassine paper as acid-free. It gives no standard or test, and the German page doesn't repeat the claim, so treat it as the maker's statement. We haven't tested the materials, and we don't claim archival quality.

## Who is the Semikolon Classic Photo Album Medium for?

**It suits people who want to glue prints and notes into a linen album and design their own pages.**

- **Journaling and planning:** Semikolon says its 80 pages of 235 g/m² card take glued photos, handwritten notes and small keepsakes.

Skip it if you want slip-in pockets: it is a glue-in album, and Semikolon's pocket albums are separate products.

## What colors does it come in?

**Semikolon offers 10 cover colors:** Black, Lava Stone, Fango, Matcha, Lilac Silk, Marine, Moss, Forest, Orange and Burgundy. We haven't matched tints to photos, so we show none. The drawing's black cover is representative.

## Where is it made, and what does it cost?

**Made by hand in Semikolon's own manufactory, country not stated on the page.** The About page places most production in its manufactory in the Czech Republic without naming products, so check the label. The album is in our $$$ band ($20–75); the German shop listed the medium at €50.95 (about US$57) on November 1, 2026, and prices change.
