I have a question about All Top #7a that I hope Archiver_USA who uploaded it or anyone can answer.

The scan is 36 pages just most of the rest of the issues are, but the front and back and inside covers definitely look like they are on newsprint.  In addition, the inside covers are in full color unlike the other inside covers.  But if the covers were on newsprint, I'd have expected a 32 page issue of two signatures.

So the question is are the covers newsprint?

I also noticed the color ifc/ibc, and if you look at the fc/bc, the paper doesn't look as glossy as normal comic covers.

I noticed one other thing; if you look at the interior scans, you can see the typical "bleed through" of the image from the other side of the page, which is common with newsprint. However, there is no such bleed through for the fc/ifc or ibc/bc scans. Therefore, I am guessing that the covers are a non-glossy but slightly heavier paper stock, with a similar appearance to newsprint.
