I'm steeling myself to start figuring out the portomarken varieties and had recently picked up a partial collection on Lindner pages (I was aghast that the seller folded them to mail them to me), the 1st page matched my own singular portomarken page that came with my Lindner album pages for the first run up into the late 30s. The second page though I hadn't seen before and appeared to be a bit older font. The bottom left corner of the page says III/1 a.
Since I now have two copies of the 1st page, I was hoping to find another available second page somewhere and then I could have two pages for portomarken K type and two pages for portomarken N type, for when I'm completely ready to lose my mind looking at fine details of stamps. I'm not seeing this page on the Lindner website and am guessing they discontinued it. I know I could get a blank page and make my own, but am not quite to the point where I have the bandwidth to do such things properly and ideally would find a pre-printed page to keep things simple. Am I just not searching the Lindner site correctly? Will be reaching out directly to Lindner as well, but wondering where people find discontinued printings of pages other than auction sites?
Thank you

Adding images of the current standard portomarken page that comes with the rest of the pages from Lindner when you get the first album for Switzerland. I already had one of these, and the page shown here came with the purchase of the one I'm looking for that is shown above.
I don't think the stamps they had in the third row are correct, but haven't really looked to closely yet. I like though how they have the mint stamps lay over the used stamps and may eventually do my whole album this way.

I'm not aware of Lindner selling individual pages, Lighthouse just started doing so themselves. I think you'll have to play the long game, and either make your own, hunt ebay or other sales/auction sites for the page(s) you want, or buy new sets entirely.

You might not want to do that. Falzlos pages don't breathe well, and it's easy to get stamps sticking together if stacked like that.

Classic-paper: Thats what I was afraid of, but at least I have a decent template to start from. Been thinking more and more of attempting to make my own pages. Some of Lindner's layouts don't make sense to me (Standing Helvetias). It's going to be a while before I start really digging into these portomarkens, so maybe I'll get lucky and find another of the same page. I have bought materials to convert a KABE flugpost vorläufers page to fit properly in my Lindner album (bigger paper size and different holes for the binder). We'll see how that first foray goes.
Thanks.

PostmasterGS - Thank you for bringing that potential issue to my attention. To clarify, the mint stamps would be slid into the clear sleeves of the page and then the used stamps would be slid into clear faced mounts affixed directly to the paper. So the clear sleeve presents mint stamps and if the clear sleeve is turned, the used stamps are revealed on the page underneath, in their own individual mounts. They were sort of doing that in the second two examples I posted above. Seems like a clever way to keep and show mint and postmarked stamps in one album. Do you foresee any issues with doing that?

That is how Lindner itself sometimes shows it.
