endleaf

Binding's inner page

An endleaf is a blank page at the beginning or end of a book, part of the endpaper that connects the text block to the cover.

These leaves serve both structural and aesthetic purposes, protecting the first and last printed pages while providing a finished appearance.

Also called a flyleaf.
