"It started with just players but then expanded to feature the whole club," said Christopher Ball.
"It's as crammed as we could get it. All the proceeds go back into the club.
"It brings the players and fans closer." At the back of the album are 'special edition' stickers. Mr Ball remained coy on what those would contain, but did say that they should be released by the start of the new year.
The album itself is priced £5, including 15 stickers.
Further sticker packs will be available to purchase for £1 from the Kingsway Club Shop, Bar Amber and the pop-up shop on match day in the marquee at Rodney Parade.
