Lindner Album Advice Wanted For Oceania

I love the flexibility of Lindner hingeless 18-ring album pages to add varieties and unusual cancels on an album page. Sometimes for a favorite series, I add a blank page for used stamps that matches the layout of the mint Lindner album page. And yes flexibility comes with a co$t; Lindner pages are pricey.

In the Polynesia region of Oceania, Lindner only offers three countries: Pitcairn, French Polynesia, and Wallis & Futuna -- no Samoa or Tonga.

My solution in the past has been to cut down Davo or Scott album sheets to fit behind the clear "PVC foil" where stamps are inserted. I get an album image to center stamps on - and when the page fills I put Lindner's black paper background in front of my cut-down album background (which I'm happy to take notes on because it's easy to remove from the album).

Q#1: So for the other ten "countries" in Polynesia, which album (Scott, Davo, ... or ???) has the most complete country offerings and gives album images for the 1800's stamp-issuing entities like Tahiti for example?? All my collections end before 2000, so I don't need recent updates.

OR EVEN BETTER - can you suggest an alternative or better system than the Lindner approach I forwarded??

I think Palo would be your best bet.

MOC album pages cover the French Pacific area. These are now produced by Lighthouse. You'll probably need to get them from a supplier in mainland Europe. You'll find them on ebay or via a large supplier such as Nordfrim. Like all Lighthouse products, they aren't cheap. They fit standard four-ring binders (as well as older binders formerly made by MOC, but no longer in production). As I understand it, the Palo pages are simply Steiner pages with a different typeface.

That's true but AFAIK, they're the only ones to comprehensively cover all of Polynesia (besides, maybe, Scott). OP already has French Polynesia covered but needs all the others in the region.

Thanks to all the Pillars of the Community for weighing in -

As Classic_Paper put it, I was seeking comprehensive coverage (not just French) and Palo is the alternative to Scott.

Since I'm cutting the pages down for background between Lindner T-sheets, the decision is about which has a format slightly smaller than Lindner (240mm high x 189mm wide) and more regular line spacing to match Lindner 4,5, or 6 line T-blank pages.

Advantages (IMHO):
Palo- color image for most stamps(?), Scott-order,

Scott- some black & white images with printed Scott numbers, thinner paper, Australia & New Zealand Dependencies grouped, cheaper

I always appreciated helpful notes like Minkus's watermark; but I've never noticed much additional in Scott or Palo.

I guess it's advantage to Scott over Palo?

Thanks wise ones,
