German term or phrase: Albenblatt
"Vordruckalben

"Eine besonders repräsentative und ansprechende Form der Unterbringung von Briefmarken sind Vordruckalben. Bei Vordruckalben sind die Briefmarken des jeweiligen Sammelgebietes in Schwarz-Weiß (absichtlich nicht in Farbe! - damit man die Lücken auf einen Blick erkennt) auf hochwertigem holzfreien und alterungsbeständigen Karton vorgedruckt. In Größe der Markenvordrucke sind SF-Schutztaschen aus glasklarer Polystyrolfolie (weichmacherfrei) auf die Vordrucke geklebt. Die Klemmnaht am unteren Rand der Tasche hält die Briefmarke sicher fest. Es gibt Albenblätter auf Wunsch auch in der sog. "Normal"-Ausführung ohne SF-Schutztaschen. Das Leuchtturm Vordruckalben-Programm umfaßt ca. 140 Sammelgebiete. Am Anfang jeden Jahres werden für die im Vorjahr in den verschiedenen Sammelgebieten (= Länder) neu erschienenen Briefmarken-Albenblätter hergestellt. Diese nachträglich erscheinenden Blätter nennt man 'Nachträge'."

My little stamp-collecting text again (which I've now been told is a test - didn't realise that before). I'm not altogether sure what "Albenblätter" are. My first thought was "stamp album sheets", but this hardly gets any hits. "Blatt" can mean all sorts of things. It could be a print, for example.

Are there any stamp-collecting experts here who know what this might be? TIA once more for your help.

Explanation:
Why not just page? Sometimes they are already printed, e.g. they have an illustration of the stamp in its place, but i think it would be still called a page. This gets oodles of googles by the way.

Indeed, it would seem that this is in fact a page. I've discovered a comprehensive resource called "Ask Phil", which includes a 19,000-word glossary! The glossary has several foreign terms, and includes "Albumblatt", which is close enough to "Albenblatt" and is translated there as "album page". So there you go. Page it is. Thanks very much to everyone who contributed.

stamp album sheets

Explanation:
Du liegst richtig. Möglicherweise gibt es noch einen anderen englischen Begriff dafür, den ich nicht kenne.

Es sind einzelne, gelochte Blätter, die man in ein Album (in diesem Fall ähnlich einem Ordner mit vier Ringen) einhängen kann.

Bei dem Link kann man so ein Album mit den Seiten sehen (das Beispiel ist nicht sooo toll, aber es geht).

album leaf

Explanation:
Stamp albums are usually loose-leaf affairs for conveniece of updating the collection.

Have a look at the two references I gave on your other two questions- have a scroll around the English one and all will be clear.
