Starting in 1942 the back covers of issues from the "Las Grandes Aventuras" and the "Los Albumes Preferidos por la Juventud" (Colleción "Audaz" & Aventuras y Misterio) printed various collector cards, which could be glued into different collecting albums. These folded "Álbumes Centella" sheets could be ordered free and measured 17,5x25 cm.

  • Sticker: Serie 11-12: Oliver Hardy, actor
  • Coupon to order collecting albums for the stickers (note: only for the series 1 to 15, 17, 18, 21, 23 and 24)

Sometime also the current or next issue for the other series.
