For unknown reasons, studios such as Columbia, Warner Bros and Universal printed inserts on this paper for a brief time around the early 1980s, and then stopped doing it. Most inserts for this title are on thin paper. Of course, it is not as easy to tell that it was printed on a thin paper because it has been linenbacked. Also note that this is an "international" style insert (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box and NSS information. What IS linenbacking?
