The A36 album has the original binding. The A35 Goodwin round album was held together by a rivet (the A3 Allen & Ginter Birds of America album had a similar configuration and was meant to be opened in a similar fashion to opening a fan). I will say most tobacco albums are held together by string with a 3 hole configuration, but there are exceptions. Many of the Duke and Goodwin albums (and maybe all of them with the exception of the round album, I'm not home so I can't look) were bound with a piece of colored cloth also.
