I have the 1993 Harper Collins edition, and though I (alas!) am currently separated from it by a few hundred miles, I'm pretty sure it is just as you described your Czech edition: it has a picture of the 1920 letter and a few pictures of stamps and such from 1920 - 1924, but it only prints the full text of the letters starting from 1925. If I recall correctly, it's also missing the penultimate letter.
