Added some new items to turbo covers collection. First thing updated was covers from turbo 121-190 collection year 1991 release, believed to be one of the hardest to get. I have just 2 in my collection from this set, and everything around it in 3 years radius are already collected.
Let’s say you have some turbo covers from year 1991, and wanted to help me to complete this set. How to know if it’s the right ones. It’s fairly simple, if turbo cover have words like “Mini Posterli” under “Turbo”, and year is really 1991, so here it is. You can contact me and get something nice in exchange.
Next additions is many new covers to bonus section. I have now 5 different color sport ’98 covers. But I have no accurate information, where does belong second to fifth covers. I do really know that first cover in light blue is from turbo sport 401-470 collection, because as I remember correctly, all gums where pepermint from this series. Also I have saved one such cover from those times. All other covers have possibility to be from turbo sport violet bonus series. But nobody knows exactly, it’s just the best guess. On the other hand, they look the same, just one is peppermint flawor, others are multi fruit flawol. So let’s leave them all under sport ’98 title for now.
Another addition, is covers from gum called “magic car sport”, that looks very familiar with turbo sport covers. So in my opinion they can be added to this turbo gum covers collection, in bonus section. Also added some covers from series that is known to me, but I haven’t those covers in my collection, and still trying to find some. Ones is from pirated turbo sport kemt edition, another is from bubba zoom gum from Nigeria. One small additional cover if from painted turbo series, that I will write about here someday soon. Also I won some auction with still another interpretation of turbo gum. Nice thing. When I will receive it, I will describe and add to the turbo covers collection. See you soon.

It’s time to finish inventorization of my whole gum collection, and to find out what and how many exactly do I have gum papers, gum covers, stuff for exchange and everything else. You can guess how many stuff I have in my collection, that is collectble, what is for exchange, but not collectable, and what is for exchange. I personally do not know, I guess it’s about 10000 different items maybe, maybe a bit more, and twice that in exchange, maybe less. Let’s check.
Rules are very simple: count everything, but only once. It’s good to write everything down, what collection, where to find, how many in collection, how many missing, also preferable some photos. Last important thing is to make some notes about quality and condition of papers. Something like that. It’s huge job, if you haven’t done it before.
Turbo Album
Let’s start with some counting. Here now I will write something about few albums, taken from the start. Those albums are numerated, and have actual numbers on the side.
Lazer center is called like that, because text under picture of the paper is in center, and it’s more hard to get and more serious to collect than ordinary lazer gum papers. And I finally have finished it. It’s about month passed to complete last 17 missing of this series. It’s just pure luck.
Bellow it’s my collection of lazer center gum papers. Condition is also quite good, I have replaced 4 of my worst papers into new better looking ones during last 3 exchanges.
