Tech/Engineering - Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting / Wallpaper sample card/book
German term or phrase: Innenspegel vorn/hinten
This comes from the same listing of website terms for wallpaper dealers in connection with sample cards. I have an idea of what it could be but would like further support please.

Explanation:
Dear Sanni,

I believe this to be a typo and the intended word should be Innenspiegel. Hope that helps.

Kind regards,

Jonas

neutral  Helen Shiner: You and I are on the same page (see my discussion entry posted at the same time as your answer!). I have never come across 'pastedown' before, and I don't agree that Innenspiegel is part of the endpaper. It is the endpaper or end sheet. Might be US term.
